A bomb threat email naming Bollywood actor Amitabh Bachchan’s Juhu residence, ‘Jalsa’, and several key locations in Mumbai prompted security searches across the city on Thursday (November 12).
The email reportedly listed the mayor’s office, a bank, a court, Mahalaxmi Racecourse and Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj International Airport as potential targets. Bomb disposal squads and security personnel searched the locations but found no suspicious objects.
Mumbai Police are investigating the threat and trying to identify the sender. The email reportedly warned that ‘Jalsa’ would be targeted by November 27.
