New Delhi, October 24, 2026 (Yes Punjab News)
The Cyber Police Station of the Delhi Police’s South District has traced the source of a bomb-threat email sent to Air Force Bal Bharati School on Lodhi Road and apprehended the alleged sender, a girl student of the same school.
According to police, the school received the threatening email on October 23, 2026, with the subject line “Bombs Placed in Your Building”. The incident occurred amid a recent series of bomb-threat emails targeting schools across the national capital, prompting an immediate technical investigation.
A dedicated team was formed to identify and trace the sender. The team included Sub-Inspector Udai Singh, Head Constables Vikas Kumar and Praveen, and Constables Praveen Joon and Suman.
During the investigation, police conducted a detailed technical analysis of the email, examined digital evidence and investigated associated linkages. These efforts led investigators to identify the alleged sender as a child in conflict with the law, referred to as ‘V’, who studies at Air Force Bal Bharati School.
According to the police investigation, the alleged motive behind sending the false bomb-threat email was to get the school closed for the day.
Police said the systematic examination of digital evidence and technical connections played a crucial role in tracing the origin of the threatening communication and identifying the alleged sender.
Legal action has been initiated under the applicable provisions of the Juvenile Justice Act, and further proceedings are underway in accordance with the law.
Officials said the swift action by the South District Cyber Police highlighted the importance of digital forensics in tracing online threats and ensuring appropriate legal action while following procedures applicable to children in conflict with the law.
