Medchal-Malkajgiri collectorate receives bomb threat

Hyderabad: A former Maoist leader, 70, threatened to blow up the Medchal-Malkajgiri district collectorate with an improvised explosive device (IED) on Thursday, April 3, by sending an email to district collector Gowtham Potra. A search by security agencies, however, did not find any such device.

The bomb disposal squad was called in to search for any explosives after the collectorate staff informed the police about a bomb threat.

“We got a call from the collectorate at 2 pm on April 3. The bomb disposal squad has searched 90% of the premises and has found nothing. The remaining 10 percent will also be searched. We believe it is a fake call,” said a senior police official while speaking with the media.
