Mumbai: The Mumbai Police on Saturday received a message by an unidentified person warning of an alleged plot to kill Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
The message was received on the traffic police’s WhatsApp helpline number. It claimed that there was a conspiracy involving agents of Pakistan’s spy agency Inter Services Intelligence, or ISI, to carry out a bomb blast in Mumbai and another one in Jharkhand’s Dhanbad city targeting the prime minister, as reported by the Hindustan Times.
The phone number from which the message was sent was traced to Rajasthan’s Ajmer district. A police officer told the publication that the message was suspected to be a hoax, but that the police were investigating it.
The police have filed a case of criminal intimidation under the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita.
Last month, a 34-year-old woman was arrested in Mumbai for making a hoax call threatening to kill Modi, claiming that a weapon was ready for the plan. Police found out that she did this call out of some frustration towards the administration system.
