Two Arrested for Sending Hoax Bomb Threat Emails to Gujarat Courts
Two men from Surat, Mahammad Asfaq and Rajesh alias Raj, were arrested in Chennai for sending hoax bomb threat emails to the Gujarat High Court and Surat Sessions Court on September 5. The threats aimed to disrupt court proceedings related to Asfaq's NDPS case, as he had absconded after jumping parole. Police traced the suspects through technical and human intelligence, noting their use of false email IDs, multiple SIM cards, and changing locations to conceal their identities. Both were brought to Ahmedabad for further investigation.
