A bomb threat email was sent to the Bombay High Court, announcing plans to target the Bombay Stock Exchange, Worli Racecourse, and the residence of Bollywood actor Amitabh Bachchan in Juhu. Mumbai Police and other security agencies treated the threat seriously and launched an investigation to identify the sender and determine the email's origin, according to IANS, which quoted Mumbai Police.
The email also named Mumbai Mayor Ritu Tawde, warning of bomb blasts at her office and a grenade attack on a school. The message hinted at Khalistani references. Despite the threats, Bachchan continued his Sunday routine of greeting fans outside his residence, now from behind a bulletproof glass shield. Security agencies heightened surveillance at all the locations listed in the email, including the mayor's office and educational institutions. Police were probing the email threat and working to identify the person or group behind it.
