However, after a thorough inspection, officials confirmed that the threat was a hoax.
According to a Daily Thanthi report, the threat mail was received on Monday, prompting immediate action by law enforcement. A bomb detection and disposal squad rushed to the spot and carried out an intensive search in and around the premises.
After a detailed examination, authorities declared that no explosives were found and confirmed the threat to be baseless.
It is worth noting that a similar bomb threat was made just last month to EPS’s residence in Salem, raising concerns about the pattern and intent behind these incidents.
Police have launched an investigation.
