A bomb threat email was sent to the Gurugram District Collector’s office, prompting security alerts. Authorities are investigating the source while ensuring safety at the premises.
The Gurugram District Collector’s office received a bomb threat email earlier this week, leading to heightened security measures across the building. The email, which warned of a potential explosive device, was intercepted by the local police cyber unit. In response, the police have cordoned off the office premises and conducted a thorough sweep for any suspicious items.
The Gurugram Police Commissioner stated that the threat was taken seriously and that the investigation is ongoing. No casualties or damage have been reported, and the office has resumed normal operations after a brief lockdown.
Officials are also reviewing security protocols for other public institutions, as similar threats have been reported to Parliament, schools, and Haryana courts. The cybercrime cell is working to trace the sender’s IP address and identify any links to broader extremist networks.
