No suspicious objects were found, confirming the school is safe. The investigation is ongoing, with the cyber police station assisting in tracing the fake email address,” he added.

Bomb Threats at Taj Palace, Max Hospital In Delhi

Earlier, on September 13, bomb threat emails were also sent to Delhi’s Taj Palace and Max Hospital. However, upon thorough inspection by the Delhi police, the threat was declared a hoax.

A senior police officer told PTI the Taj Palace hotel in Shalimar Bagh received a bomb threat via e-mail on Saturday morning, while Max Hospital in Dwarka was sent a similar threat in the afternoon.

A PTI report quoted Taj Palace’s spokesperson as saying, “After a thorough security check authorities have declared the threat a hoax. The safety and security of our guests and employees is of paramount importance to us and we continue to remain vigilant.” Upon receiving information, multiple teams of the Delhi Police including a bomb disposal squad (BDS), dog squad, and a quick reaction team (QRT) rushed to the scenes, the officer said.

The mail mentioned that there were improvised explosive devices (IEDs) on each floor of the hotel.
