Bengaluru Bomb Threat Email Text

“There are explosive devices on the school grounds On November 26 martyrs in the way of Allah killed hundreds of idolaters It is truly powerful to hold a knife over tens of millions of thin gulps of kafirs He falls and falls Hundreds of Mujahideen flooded the war area in anticipation of martyrdom in the way of Allah You are the enemies of Allah we will kill you and your children You have a choice to become our slaves or to accept the true religion of Allah Temples Your idols From Buddha to infinity They will fly apart from our explosions Bismillah we will spread the true religion of Allah to the whole of India And we sent predators at you Already flying to immerse yourself in the Taj Bismillah tomorrow it will become the capitol and thousands of Zionists all over the world dead Convert to Islam or die under the weight of the sword of Islam When you meet with non-believers, you chop off their heads Chop off their heads and chop off all their fingers Fight all the polytheists just as they fight all of you Allahu Akbar”

Security measures heightened in area:

Authorities are actively investigating the origin of threatening emails targeting multiple schools to ensure the safety of students and staff. Heightened security measures are in place, with local law enforcement collaborating closely with affected schools. Following the threat, school authorities promptly informed parents through emails, outlining a precautionary school evacuation with law enforcement conducting campus clearance. Classes were canceled for the day, and instructions for safe student evacuation were provided.

One Bengaluru school emailed parents, explaining the bomb threat and the initiation of an evacuation as a precaution. The school emphasized collaboration with law enforcement, ensuring the safety of students as the top priority. Karnataka Deputy Chief Minister D K Shivakumar addressed the media, reassuring that the situation is being handled with the utmost priority on safety.

Expressing initial panic, Shivakumar mentioned being on the treadmill when he saw the news, highlighting the widespread nature of the threats. The police commissioner confirmed that over 30 schools received the threatening emails but suggested it appears to be a hoax. Anti-sabotage teams are deployed at these locations as a precaution, with authorities urging against panic.
