The Mumbai police on Wednesday detained a Mulund-based man for allegedly making a threat call to the police control room. The police said the caller seemed to be mentally disturbed.
An officer said that around 1 am on Tuesday, the Mumbai police control room received a call from a mobile number. The caller started abusing the police and said he would blow up the police headquarters. He claimed to be the brother of “aatanki Kasab”, apparently referring to Ajmal Amir Kasab, the 26/11 terror attack convict who was hanged. “Kasab ka bhai bol raha hoon,” he said and hung up.
The mobile number was traced to Mulund, following which an FIR was registered at the Mulund police station. The police then tracked down the caller on Wednesday.
An officer said they detained one Piyush Shukla (28), who worked as a security guard in Thane. He took a train to Mulund and was under the influence of alcohol. He was driven away from the platform by the Railway Protection Police. Upset, he called up the police control room to complain, but got into an argument and issued the threat. The officer said they issued him a notice and allowed him to go.
