On Tuesday, August 3, a hoax call was reportedly received by the United States (US) consulate in Bandra-Kurla Complex (BKC).
According to reports, the consulate informed Mumbai Police officials. In view of the situation, Mumbai Police set the Bomb Detection and Disposal Squad (BDDS) in action and got the area around the consulate thoroughly checked. However, nothing suspicious was found.
Meanwhile, the authorities stated that the call was received around midnight and the caller used a mobile number to place the call further threatening to blow up the entire building. Furthermore, the officials stated that they found nothing in the search which was carried out in the presence of the dog squad and BDDS. However, they will soon register a case with the local police station and start the process to trace the caller.
On the other hand, earlier on, July 25, Mumbai Police informed that they were investigating whether Raj Kundra, businessman and husband of Bollywood actress Shilpa Shetty Kundra, has links to three to four other apps that streamed pornographic content.
Last week, Kundra was arrested in connection with a porn racket case. According to reports, he has been accused of running the pornographic app ‘Hotshots’ through his company, Viaan Industries. As per officials, “After Hotshots was removed from Apple and Google Play stores, we believe he set up a few other apps. We are now investigating it.”
