India Jan 08, 2026

On Thursday, the Idukki District Court in Kerala had to pause all work after an email threatened a bombing, referencing the 2019 Sri Lanka Easter attacks.
The message claimed to be from a group called "Tamil Liberation."
Court activities were immediately put on hold while everyone was safely evacuated.

Quick police response, no bomb found

Police and bomb squads quickly searched the court premises with sniffer dogs but didn't find anything suspicious.
By 2:30pm things were back to normal and court sessions resumed.
Authorities are now tracking down who sent the email to make sure security stays tight.
