An email message has warned of explosions targeting major banks in the city, Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj International Airport, courts, the Mayor\u2019s office, Mahalaxmi Racecourse, and Bollywood superstar Amitabh Bachchan\u2019s residence. The threat message also mentioned upcoming musical events of the famed Punjabi singer and actor Diljit Dosanjh. Following receipt of the threat, Mumbai Police and various security agencies remain on high alert.<\/p>\n<p>Security checks have been intensified at the locations mentioned in the threat. Extensive searches were conducted to detect any suspicious circumstances. Bomb detection and disposal units, along with other security arrangements, continue to maintain vigilance. However, preliminary inspections have not found any explosives or suspicious items at any of the indicated sites, according to reports.<\/p>\n<p>Reports quoting security sources reveal that the bomb threat email was received from an unknown email address at 10.52 a.m. on November 12. The threat email was sent to the Mumbai zonal office of Punjab National Bank, the local Crime Branch office in the Cafe Parade area, and a bank branch located in Saveri Bazaar, South Mumbai.<\/p>\n<p>The email issues a warning of a series of bomb blasts targeting key institutions and public places across the city. Since administrative centers, financial institutions, and heavily frequented public areas are included in the threat, security agencies have taken the matter very seriously. Following this, warnings were issued to security officials at the respective institutions as well as to local police units. Mumbai Municipal Corporation\u2019s security divisions were also informed.<\/p>\n<p>The threat email concludes with the name \u201cKhalistan National Army.\u201d It includes the names of Engineer Gurnakh Singh, Rukan Chawala, and Dr. Gurnirvair Singh Khan Rajada. However, there is no confirmation so far that the named organization or individuals have any actual connection with the threat. Investigators are also considering the possibility that the names of the organization and individuals were deliberately misused by the sender.<\/p>\n<p>The cybercrime investigation department is conducting a probe to locate the true origin of the email. Technical details, the email address used, and the sender\u2019s digital footprint are being examined in an effort to identify the perpetrators.<\/p>\n<p>One of the most serious aspects of the threat message is the specific schedule mentioned for explosions at various locations on the same day. The email claims that a blast will take place at the Punjab National Bank\u2019s Mumbai branch at 1.11 p.m., at a court at 2.11 p.m., at the Mayor\u2019s office at 3.11 p.m., and at Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj International Airport at 9.11 p.m.<\/p>\n<p>The threat also refers to the famous Mumbai residence of Bollywood superstar Amitabh Bachchan, known as \u201cJalsa,\u201d asserting that bombs will be planted there and in his car. &quot;Jalsa&quot; is one of the most well-known star residences in Mumbai and is frequently visited by fans. Security agencies regard this direct threat to the star\u2019s residence with great seriousness, though no confirmation has yet emerged of explosives being planted or any attempt to attack the property.<\/p>\n<p>The email further mentions upcoming events of Punjabi singer and actor Diljit Dosanjh, warning people against attending his music programs near the Mahalaxmi Racecourse. Including large public entertainment events in the threat has raised concern. However, no confirmed plot against any specific Diljit Dosanjh event has been detected.<\/p>\n<p>Besides, the threat message contains a reference to changes related to the corporate email domain of Punjab National Bank; it is unclear if this has any connection with the threat.<\/p>\n<p>Given the threat targets multiple major centers across Mumbai simultaneously, investigative agencies are examining all aspects of the case. Key points under inquiry include the sender\u2019s aim, the authenticity of the names used, and the linkage among the targeted locations.<\/p>\n<p>While the absence of suspicious items in initial inspections provides some relief, security experts stress the importance of maintaining vigilance until the source of the threat is identified. The principal challenge in the investigation is to establish the credibility of the threat message and the intentions of those behind it. Only a detailed probe will determine whether the threat is a hoax designed to create panic or a genuine security concern.<\/p>\n<p>n<\/p>\n<p><small>Original Malayalam report: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.malayalamdailynews.com\/783258\/\">Malayalam Daily News<\/a><\/small><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Mumbai: Mumbai, the financial capital of the country, has once again received a bomb threat.
