Isro headquarters get hoax bomb threat mail

An email claiming to contain explosives was sent to the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) headquarters in Bengaluru, prompting an immediate evacuation and a comprehensive security operation. The threat, sent to ISRO’s campus on New BEL Road, led to the involvement of bomb detection teams, police, and sniffer dogs, who conducted searches of the premises but found no evidence of explosives. Officials confirmed the incident was likely a hoax, with authorities launching an investigation to trace the origin of the email. The threat is part a broader pattern of similar anonymous bomb emails targeting various institutions in Karnataka, including the Karnataka High Court and educational facilities, raising concerns about potential coordination among perpetrators.
