Man arrested in Pune for threatening to blow up Mumbai Mantralaya

Maharashtra Deputy Chief Minister Eknath Shinde stated that the threats were bogus, calling the Vidhan Bhavan safe and added that operations to tackle the issue are underway smoothly.

The accused, 26-year-old Farman, a resident of New Usmanpur, is a known history-sheeter with a criminal record spanning over 40 cases.

The Green corridor between Thane and Mumbai allowed for the organ to leave from Jupiter Hospital in Thane at 13:45 and reach Nanavati Hospital at 14:16, covering a distance of 26 kilometres in just 30 minutes.

Panic was created after Mumbai Vidhan Bhavan received a bomb threat via email, leading to searches and evacuations. Police, including the Bomb Disposal Squad (BDS) team, are present on the scene, officials said on Wednesday.

An eight-month-old infant who was allegedly kidnapped from the Khajuri Khas area in northeast Delhi was rescued by police within days, with a couple arrested in connection with the crime, officials said.
