Bomb scare jolts High Court

BANGALORE: There was commotion on Monday afternoon near the High Court following an anonymous call to the control room stating there was a bomb in the court premises. Some unidentified person called the police control room at 2.30 pm and said a bomb has been placed in the High Court and hung the call. Dog and bomb squads immediately arrived on the spot and screened the building. It was then declared that the phone call was a hoax.
