Delhi-NCR schools, St Stephen’s College get bomb threats; one declared hoax
Two schools in Delhi-NCR and St Stephen’s College received bomb threats via email on Friday. Noida’s Shiv Nadar School and Alcon School in Delhi received bomb threats, prompting the administration to send students home.
The school administration ordered all students to return home.
Police teams, along with a dog squad and a bomb detection team, are at the site conducting searches.
The bomb threat to Delhi’s Ahlcon International School turned out to be a hoax.
Delhi police received information about the bomb threat at Mayur Vihar’s Ahlcon International School at around 6:40 am.
“This information was shared with the control room and senior police officers. The school premises were then checked by bomb detection staff with dog handlers. Nothing abnormal was found,” a police official said.
This comes two days after multiple private schools in Noida received similar threats. However, during the investigation, police discovered that the bomb threats were sent by a Class 9 student who wanted to avoid attending school.
