The Cubbon Park police on Monday carried out a combing operation on the Bishop Cotton Girl’s School premises following a complaint from the management about a threat mail received on April 8.
The management got to know about the mail on Monday and alerted the police. The police, along with the dog detection unit and canine squad, rushed to the spot as per procedure and carried out extensive search.
The police have also taken up a complaint and the cyber crime division police are trying to track down the sender. The school was not functioning when they received the mail and did not check the mail until Monday, a police officer said.
Multiple private schools in Bengaluru received bomb threats via e-mail on Friday, following which the city police were rushed to the spot along with bomb disposal squads to carry out search operations. The threats turned out to be hoaxes.
