A bomb threat prompted an intense search at the Nagpur High Court complex on Monday evening. However, the threat was ultimately a hoax, as confirmed by a police official.

The incident began when a resident from Jariptaka alerted the Sadar police station about a potential bomb, leading to the detention of the individual following a filed complaint.

Authorities, including specialized bomb detection teams, launched a comprehensive search at 5 PM but found nothing suspicious. The detained individual was found to be mentally unstable, and further investigations are ongoing.
