Three schools in Delhi received bomb threats on Monday morning, which were later declared a hoax. The threats were sent via e-mail to the Navy Children School in Chanakyapuri and two CRPF schools in Sector 16, Dwarka, and Prashant Vihar, the police said. 

The Delhi Fire Services said a fire tender was rushed to each school after learning about the threats.

Deputy Commissioner of Police (Dwarka) Ankit Singh said the cyber police experts are ascertaining the source of the e-mail.

“Dwarka North police station received a call informing about a bomb threat at the CRPF School here. Local police, sniffer dogs and bomb disposal squads reached the school and conducted due checks. Nothing suspicious was found,” Mr. Singh said, adding that security has been tightened at the school.

Meanwhile, DCP (Rohini) Rajeev Ranjan also stated that the threat to the CRPF School in Prashant Vihar was declared a hoax.
