Karnataka Chief Minister Siddaramaiah and Deputy Chief Minister D.K. Shivakumar received emails on March 2, warning them of “more bomb blasts” in the State.
This comes close on the heels of the low-intensity blast at The Rameshwaram Cafe in Brookfield in east Bengaluru on March 1, which left nine injured. Home Minister G. Parameshwara and Bengaluru City Police Commissioner B. Dayananda too got similar emails on Saturday.
Following the threatening emails, the cybercrime police stepped up investigation and registered a suo motu case. Efforts are on to track down the source of the mail.
