A teenage boy has been caught for allegedly sending an email bomb threat to the Delhi Police headquarters claiming that a bomb had been planted in the outer Delhi’s Nangloi area.

The Delhi Police conducted a thorough search of the area and identified the sender, who turned out to be a teenage boy. The police counselled him before handing him over to his parents.

The Delhi Police Headquarters is located in central Delhi, approximately 18 kilometers away from Nangloi.

In a statement, the PHQ stated that “the sender is an immature child and therefore, in his interest and in compliance of the mandate of JJ Act, details of his identity cannot be shared.”

The email was sent as an act of mischief, and after proper counselling, the juvenile has been handed over to his parents.
