Bomb hoax call creates panic in Jaipur

An anonymous call that a bomb has been planted near a building at Ajmer gate in Jaipur on Thursday created panic in the area but it turned out to be a hoax, police said.

"A man made a call to the city police control room and threatened that a bomb has been planted near 'Yadgar' building at Ajmer gate," DCP (Jaipur-North) Ashok Naruka said.

Bomb disposal squad and dog squad throughly checked the entire area but found nothing suspicious.

"The mobile number which was used to make the call was obtained through fake identity and we are examining its call details to nab the accused," the DCP said.
