In a dramatic turn of events at Delhi High Court, an email warning of imminent explosions caused panic, leading to the evacuation of judges, lawyers, and court staff. Police and security teams quickly responded, scouring the premises for potential danger.
The email, received by the registrar general early in the morning, initiated widespread concern as it detailed threats to judges' chambers and courtrooms. Court proceedings were disrupted as judges evacuated following protocol.
