Dehradun, February 19 The Dehradun district court received a bomb threat email, prompting a thorough search of the premises, police said.
No suspicious materials were found during the search, and the threat received on Wednesday was subsequently declared a hoax, they added.
Officials said that upon receiving information, senior police officials arrived at the scene, evacuated the court premises, and conducted a thorough search aided by the bomb disposal squad and dog units.
Police said that various district courts in Uttarakhand have received bomb threats in the past few days.
The Nainital, Uttarkashi, Tehri, and Rudraprayag district courts also received threatening emails, all of which were later proven to be hoaxes after extensive searches of the premises found no suspicious objects.
