Terror mails traced to Saudi Arabia

By U Sudhakar Reddy
Terror emails sent to local television channels in the city were traced to Jeddah in Saudi Arabia, the police said.
Hoax calls on bomb threats were traced to the United Arab Emirates.
A senior city police officer said, “An email that was sent to a television channel threatening bomb blasts in Telangana districts was from Saudi Arabia. One of the calls was even traced to Fujairah in the Emirates.” Police said the aim of the callers was to create panic in the city.
“For all these years, the hoax calls were from the city. Now they have crossed international borders. Terror elements based in Saudi Arabia may have made the calls,” an official told this correspondent.
