More than 50 hospitals in Mumbai including Jaslok Hospital, Raheja Hospital, Seven Hills Hospital, Kohinoor Hospital, KEM Hospital, JJ Hospital and St. George Hospital have received bomb threats via email. The Mumbai Police confirmed that the threatening emails were sent using a VPN network.

The institution also received a hoax email threatening to blow up Mumbai’s Hinduja College of Commerce, ANI reported.

“Local police and bomb squad reached the spot and started investigation but found nothing suspicious. Mumbai’s VP Road police station is investigating the case,” ANI quoted the police as saying.

On the same day the bomb threats were received, 41 airports, including Chennai, Patna and Jaipur, received similar threats, prompting authorities to implement contingency measures and conduct anti-sabotage checks that lasted several hours, each of which was found to be a hoax. .

An email received by airports contained an almost identical message: “Hello, there are explosives hidden in the airport. The bomb will go off soon. You will all die.”

After receiving the threat, officials at Nagpur and Patna airports conducted a thorough search of their premises but found nothing.

Patna Airport Director Aanchal Prakash said, “41 other airports, including Jaiprakash Narayan International Airport, received email bomb threats. A meeting of the Bomb Threat Assessment Committee (BTAC) was convened… and it was informed that the threat was not specific.”

At the Chennai airport, a Dubai-bound flight with 286 passengers was delayed due to hoax threats.
