Bengaluru: Lok Bhavan received a bomb threat mail that later turned out to be a hoax, following which a complaint was lodged with the Vidhana Soudha police, officials said.
According to The New Indian Express on Saturday, the threat mail was received on January 14, while the complaint was formally registered on January 20.
R Prabhu Shankar, Chief Security Administrative Officer to the Governor at Lok Bhavan, filed a complaint against unknown persons for sending a threatening mail to the Governor’s official email ID.
According to the complaint, the mail contained allegations relating to the treatment of constables in Tamil Nadu and claimed the threat was intended to press for the implementation of the 1979 Nainar Das Police Union recommendations.
The mail also claimed that an explosive attack would be carried out at the Governor’s office. Following the threat, security agencies conducted a thorough check, after which the message was found to be false, police said.
Further investigation is under way to trace the sender of the mail.

Washington: US President Donald Trump has said he has not yet considered whether he would continue the ceasefire involving Iran, while also claiming the United States holds the advantage in negotiations.
Speaking to reporters, Trump said he was prepared to make a deal with “whoever is running the show” in Iran.
“They are fighting with each other, there’s tremendous infighting. They’re probably fighting for leadership in many cases. I think they’re fighting not to be leader because we knocked out two levels of leaders,” he said.
Trump added, “When they want they can call me. We have all the cards, we’ve won everything.”
Referring to ongoing negotiations, he said, “They gave us a paper that should’ve been better. And, interestingly, immediately when I cancelled it [envoy trip to Pakistan], within 10 minutes we got a new paper that was much better.”
“We talked about they will not have a nuclear weapon, very simple … They offered a lot, but not enough,” he added.
When asked whether he would continue the ceasefire, Trump replied, “I haven’t even thought about it.”
The remarks come as uncertainty remains over the future of the temporary truce and broader negotiations between Washington and Tehran.
