Security agencies in Mumbai launched an investigation after multiple bomb threat emails were received by high-profile locations across the city on Tuesday. The threatening messages targeted the bungalow residence of Bollywood actor Amitabh Bachchan, the Bombay High Court, and a concert venue hosting singer Diljit Dosanjh.
Upon receiving the threats, authorities initiated standard security protocols at all three locations. Police teams conducted preliminary checks to assess the credibility of the claims, while venue operators and building management were alerted to heightened security measures.
The Bombay High Court continued functioning with enhanced security checks at entry points. The concert venue reviewed its safety procedures, though no immediate threat was confirmed at any location. Police have registered cases and are investigating the origin of the emails to identify the sender.
This incident is part of a recurring pattern of bomb hoax threats targeting prominent locations and public figures in Mumbai in recent months. Authorities have urged citizens to report any suspicious communications and cautioned against making false threats, which carry serious legal penalties under Indian law.
