Various shopping malls in the national capital received bomb threat emails on Tuesday, according to the Delhi police. The malls targeted include Chanakya Mall, Select CityWalk, Ambience Mall, DLF, Cine Polis, Pacific Mall, Primus Hospital, and the Unity group.
Mall authorities immediately informed the Delhi police upon discovering the emails, leading to a swift investigation. Bomb Disposal Squads and fire tenders were dispatched to the locations, but no bombs have been found yet.
A senior police officer indicated that initial investigations point towards a common pattern in the threatening emails, which did not specify dates. Similar incidents have occurred recently, including a threat at Ambience Mall in Gurugram on August 17, and a bomb scare at a school in Delhi's Greater Kailash area on August 2. Both threats were unfounded, but investigations and potential legal actions are ongoing.
