Reserve Bank's customer care gets threat call from man posing as Lashkar CEO

India Today  

The Reserve Bank of India customer care centre in Mumbai received a threat call from a man claiming to be the 'CEO' of the Pakistan-based terror organisation Lashkar-e-Taiba, officials said on Sunday. The incident occurred at a time when the country continues to witness several hoax threat calls, primarily targeting airlines, along with schools and other institutions. In one of the latest incidents, Mumbai's Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj International Airport received a bomb threat on Wednesday afternoon from an unidentified caller who claimed there was a plot to blow up the airport. Multiple schools in Mumbai and Delhi, along with hotels in Tirupati, also received threat calls last month, prompting police action, which later turned out to be hoaxes.
