Two Delhi Schools Receive Bomb Threat Emails | India News
Two schools in Delhi received bomb threats via email on Wednesday, officials said. The investigation is ongoing, but the fire department has confirmed that no suspicious object has been found so far.
As per the Delhi Fire Department, the emails were sent to St. Thomas School and Vasant Valley School, both located in the Dwarka area.
“A bomb threat was received via email at St. Thomas School and Vasant Valley School in Delhi’s Dwarka. The investigation is underway. Nothing suspicious has been found yet,” ANI reported, citing the Delhi Fire Department.
The latest incident follows similar threats earlier in the week. On Tuesday, Thomas School in Delhi’s Dwarka and St. Stephen’s College of the University of Delhi received bomb threats. The threat was sent to the Delhi Police via email at 7:15 AM. In the case of St. Stephen’s College, the mail stated that a bomb had been planted in the library.
On Monday, three schools in the national capital — CRPF School in Prashant Vihar, CRPF School in Dwarka Sector 16, and another school in Chanakyapuri, were targeted with similar bomb threats.
Police noted that the email received by the Chanakyapuri school contained anti-Tamil Nadu government content.
In all instances, bomb squads were deployed and extensive searches were carried out, but each threat was ultimately determined to be a hoax.
Meanwhile, on the same day, Punjab’s Golden Temple in Amritsar also received a threatening email. The Shiromani Gurdwara Parbandhak Committee (SGPC), the apex religious body of Sikhs, reported the incident to the authorities.
The email reportedly threatened to blow up the langar hall (community kitchen) of the revered Darbar Sahib.
