Delhi receives threat messages targeting CRPF schools in Dwarka and Prashant Vihar, along with four major district courts
A major security alert gripped Delhi after several bomb threat messages were sent to key institutions across the city. Both schools and district courts were targeted, creating worry among students, staff, parents, and the general public.
The Police Control Room received multiple calls claiming that explosives had been planted at important locations. These messages triggered an urgent, coordinated response from law-enforcement agencies.
Two CRPF Schools Evacuated Following Threat Messages
Two schools run by the Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF) were among the first locations to receive bomb threat messages. One school is located in Dwarka, and the other in Prashant Vihar.
Students, teachers, and staff were immediately evacuated for safety. Bomb disposal squads and security teams arrived quickly and conducted thorough checks inside classrooms, playgrounds, and surrounding areas.
Four Delhi District Courts Also Targeted
Shortly after the schools reported the threats, four major district courts in the capital also received similar messages. These included Patiala House Court, Rohini Court, Dwarka Court, and Saket Court.
Security was strengthened at all court complexes. Entry points were closely monitored, and search teams inspected every section of the premises.
Emails Allegedly Sent in the Name of Jaish-e-Mohammad
Initial reports indicate that the threatening emails were sent in the name of Jaish-e-Mohammad, a Pakistan-based terrorist organisation.
Authorities are trying to determine whether the emails are credible or connected to the rising pattern of hoax threats that have affected the city this year. Investigators are tracing the source of the messages and examining technical details to confirm their authenticity.
Police and Bomb Disposal Teams React Promptly
Delhi Police deployed multiple teams soon after the threat messages were received. Bomb squads, dog units, and specialised personnel inspected all locations mentioned in the calls and emails.
The police are treating the situation seriously while simultaneously checking for possible links to earlier cases of hoax bomb threats.
