A series of threatening emails targeted Delhi’s schools yet again, with messages sent to more than 350 email IDs directly or indirectly linked to educational institutions. According to sources, as many as 384 unique IDs were targeted, including those belonging to principals, administrators, and general school contact addresses.

Investigators said of these, nearly 192 belonged directly to schools—with domains ending in school.org, .edu, or .ac.in—while others were a mix of staff, alumni, and associated contacts. An initial probe has revealed that the emails were sent from an IP address using Google servers, and Google has been approached to provide technical details of the sender.

The threatening messages, many carrying similar wording, were delivered in the early hours of the school day, sparking panic among staff and parents.

The schools that reported receiving the threat emails included Air Force Bal Bharati School, Air Force Golden Jubilee Institute, Alwar Public School, Amity International School, Delhi Police Public School, Modern Convent School, Mother’s International School, and Sardar Patel Vidyalaya.

So far, cops consider the emails to be non-credible, likely sent to incite fear and confusion.

Security Stepped Up

Delhi Police immediately dispatched teams to the affected schools and increased deployment on campus gates. Bomb disposal squads were pressed into service, and additional patrolling was carried out around vulnerable areas.

Investigation Underway

Along with Delhi Police, central agencies are now involved in tracing the source of the emails. Investigators are examining digital trails and IP addresses, though officials noted that the messages appear to have been routed through both domestic and international servers, complicating efforts to pinpoint the sender.

“So far, the threats appear to be part of a coordinated spam or hoax campaign, but we are treating them with utmost seriousness," said a senior police officer.
