South Delhi School Bomb Threat: 14-Year-Old Confesses to Sending Fake Email to Skip School

New Delhi: A 14-year-old boy is under investigation by Delhi Police for sending bomb threats to schools in Delhi’s Greater Kailash area on Saturday. 

Schools in Delhi’s Greater Kailash area were cordoned off on Friday over a bomb threat over an email threatening to blow up the school, but nothing suspicious was found by the police. 

He admitted to making the threats because he didn't want to go to school. To make the threat seem credible, he also mentioned two other schools in the email.

"An email was received at a school in Delhi's Greater Kailash area, threatening to blow up the school with a bomb. It is written in the email that a bomb was planted in the school yesterday. Nothing has been found in the investigation so far, legal action initiated," Delhi police said in a statement.

"A false bomb call was made in Summerfield, GK, South Delhi. Nothing was found on checking. The school has been evacuated and checked," it added.
