Ahmedabad: A day after the Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel International (SVPI) airport received a hoax bomb threat targeting Terminal 1, Airport police have registered a complaint of criminal intimidation against an unidentified person. The Airports Authority of India received the threat via email on Tuesday morning. “The message not only alleged the presence of an explosive device within T1 building but also named certain individuals purportedly linked to the threat,” the complaint filed by Amitkumar Aryan, engineering manager and security in-charge at the airport, said. He stated the threat was issued purportedly due to authorities’ inaction against some politicians from south India.Aryan stated he was out of the city for official work when he received information about the threat. When he returned on Wednesday, he was told that “at 10.45am, the bomb threat email was declared non-credible, and no suspicious or criminal items were found at the airport upon thorough checking by all security agencies.” “Based on the information received, we were instructed to file a police complaint today,” he stated.TNN
