15 schools receive bomb threats in the name of ‘Allah hu Akbar’ [ Karnataka, India ]

[ Reported as seen ]

15 schools scattered throughout Bengaluru as administrative staff members received emails warning of explosive devices planted within their institutions, capable of detonating at any moment. Bengaluru Police Commissioner B Dayananda stated that numerous anti-sabotage teams meticulously combed through the school premises and discovered no signs of any suspicious objects.

“At the moment, it appears to be a prank message.” The search will be completed shortly. “However, we urge parents not to panic,” he said, adding, “Similar emails were sent by miscreants to numerous schools in the city last year as well.”

Many parents, teachers, and guardians were filled with fear. Some schools shifted pupils to neighbouring playgrounds or secure sites, while others asked parents or guardians to pick up their children as soon as possible.

The police, joined by a bomb disposal crew, rushed to the schools and began searching. According to sources, the email, allegedly received by a terrorist organisation, threatened to blow bombs in the schools unless the students converted to Islam.

Times Now reported the content of the email received by Bengaluru schools. The threat email is reproduced verbatim below:-

“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 capital 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”.

D.K. Shivakumar, Deputy Chief Minister, and R. Ashok, Leader of the Opposition, visited the schools to comfort parents and promised strict action. This is the second time a school has received such a bogus email. Home Minister G. Parameshwara also promised harsh punishment for the criminals, saying, “We have implemented all precautionary measures, and parents should not be alarmed.” The cybercrime authorities are working hard to track down the perpetrators using their IP addresses.”
