Bomb threat at Hyderabad RGI Airport turns out to be a hoax

The security personnel at the RGI Airport went into a tizzy after some unknown persons sent an email informing them about a bomb planted in the airport area.

The information was received at the airport at 6.06 am, and the message swiftly communicated to the security agencies who immediately started anti-sabotage checks in and around the airport. Teams from



the CISF and local police after conducting a search declared it to be a hoax.

“As per protocols, a bomb threat assessment committee was formed and all procedures were followed as per SOP. The threat was a hoax,” said airport authorities.

Based on a complaint, the RGI Airport police registered a case and started an investigation.
