Bengaluru: Around 15 private schools in Bengaluru have received bomb threats through e-mail and the police have rushed to the schools and checked them. There were email threats of bombs which were mailed in the name of Mujahideen. Not just the 15 schools, even remaining schools in the city are voluntarily closing and the parents are coming to pick there kids.

There are explosive devices on the school ground. On November 26 martyrs in the way of allah killed hundreds of idolaters. It is truly powerful to hold a knife over tens of millions of thin gulps of kafirs. He fails and falls. You are the enemies of Allah, we will kill you and your children. You have a choice to become our slaves or to accept the true religion of allah,' the email read.
