Jabalpur Airport receives hoax bomb threat

Jabalpur airport had quite a scare on Sunday when a bomb threat email forced a full evacuation.
The alert turned out to be a hoax, but it wasn't taken lightly—security teams, including the Anti-Terrorist Squad and dog squads, quickly checked the area and found nothing suspicious.
Thankfully, flights weren't affected and everyone was safe.

TL;DR

Fake threat sent to 40 other places too

Now, cyber experts are tracking down who sent the fake threat, which actually went out to about 40 other places too.
Police have filed a criminal intimidation case under new laws.
Security at the airport has been tightened for now, but things are running as usual again and passengers have been assured there's nothing to worry about.
