A threat mail sent to the Reserve Bank in Mumbai about 11 bomb blasts in Mumbai on December 26 sent police into a tizzy, but no suspicious object was found at these locations, including the RBI central office building and two other banks. The e-mail was sent from the id [email protected] on the RBI governor's email id at around 10:50 a.m. threatening bomb blasts at the RBI new Central Office building, Fort, HDFC House in Churchgate, and ICICI Bank Tower in Bandra-Kurla Complex at 1:30 p.m., a police official said.
Threatening execution of blasts, the sender demanded that Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman and RBI governor Shaktikanta Das resign from their posts immediately and release a full statement about the disclosure of the "banking scam", as per the FIR.
"11 bombs are planted at different locations in Mumbai and explosions will take place at 1.30 pm at the RBI new Central Office building, Fort, HDFC House in Churchgate, and ICICI Bank Tower in Bandra-Kurla Complex. All the 11 bombs will blast one by one (sic)," it said.
