The Weights and Measures Department office in Bhopal received another bomb threat via email for the second consecutive day on Tuesday.
The email threatened to blow up the office with RDX.
However, the email threat again proved to be a hoax. The police and bomb squad were pressed into action, and after a thorough search of the premises, no explosives were found.
The office was again evacuated, and the staff anxiously waited outside until the police declared the premises safe.
On Monday, too, the office had received a bomb threat by email, which warned of blowing up the building with cyanide gas explosives planted in 16 LED bulbs.
That threat was also found to be a hoax.
The police were still trying to identify the sender of Monday’s threat email when another such message was received on Tuesday.
