National Investigation Agency (NIA) has received an unidentified mail from an individual claiming to be a Talibani member, threatening to carry out a terror attack in Mumbai. According to police sources NIA quickly informed the Mumbai Police about the developments, after which various cities of Maharashtra have been put on alert. After receiving the mail NIA along with Mumbai Police started a joint investigation to uncover truth.
Earlier in January this year, another threat call was received at Dhirubhai Ambani International School, Mumbai on Tuesday in which the unknown caller threatened to blow up the school.
According to Mumbai Police, a call was received at 4:30 pm on the landline of the school. The caller claimed to have planted a time bomb at the school.
A similar ‘suspicious’ call informing about the bombs planted in various parts of the city was received in October last year as well, in which the caller claimed that
three bombs have been planted in the city at Infinity Mall Andheri, PVR Mall Juhu, and Sahara Hotel Airport. The Mumbai police has taken measures to increase security in the targeted places. In addition to this attempts are underway to nab the unidentified caller.
