'Kill Everyone In The Building': Gurugram, Noida Malls Receive Hoax Bomb Threats Over E-Mail

The bomb threats to DLF Mall of India in Sector 18 of Noida and Ambience Mall in Gurugram came over three months after similar threats were sent to multiple schools in the National Capital Region (NCR).

About the bomb threat mail

As per media reports, in the mail received by the Ambience Mall management at 9.27 am, the sender claimed to have planted bombs to “kill everyone in the building". Police said efforts are being made to track the source of the email.

According to PTI, the email, which was sent from [email protected], read, "I planted bombs in the building. Every person inside the building will be killed, none of you will escape. You deserve death. I planted the bombs in the building because I hate my life. The people behind this attack are Paige and Nora."

Following the developments, the bomb and dog squad teams were rushed to the spot and the search operation lasted for four-and-half hours.

Commenting on the matter, Assistant Commissioner of Police, DLF (Gurugram), Vikas Kaushik said, "The search operation at the Ambience Mall is over and nothing has been found. We are now searching for the accused who sent the threat email."

According to Noida Additional Commissioner of Police (law and order) Shivhari Meena, searches were conducted at the DLF Mall of India following information of a bomb threat but nothing objectionable was found and the email appears to be a hoax. However, later the operation was termed as a security drill conducted in collaboration with Noida authorities.
