SMS gears up for IPL games despite 3 threats in 5 days

Jaipur: The city's Sawai Man Singh Stadium is all set to host three Indian Premier League (IPL) matches as the tournament resumes on May 17, following two bomb threats that were later confirmed to be hoaxes. Rajasthan State Sports Council (RSSC) chairperson Neeraj K Pawan assured fans and stakeholders that there is no cause for concern, with comprehensive security measures in place to ensure a safe and smooth bomb threats, on May 8 and May 12, which caused initial alarm, prompted swift action from authorities. A third threat mail was received Tuesday afternoon again prompted police to launch a full-scale search operation at the stadium. It too turned out to be a first threat, received via email, claimed a bomb was planted in retaliation for 'Operation Sindoor'. It triggered an immediate lockdown of the stadium, evacuation of all personnel, and a meticulous three-hour search by bomb detection squads, which found no explosives. The second threat, another email warning that the stadium would be 'blown up', prompted a similar response. Cybercrime officials are now investigating both emails to trace their origins and prevent further concerns, Pawan stated, "Bomb disposal squads conducted security drills twice, thoroughly checking every nook and corner of the stadium." He emphasised that stringent security protocols will be enforced during the matches, including rigorous checks at all entry points and the deployment of a dog squad to sweep the the third bomb threat received Tuesday, the RSSC chairperson said that 'it's totally fake'. "It's some miscreant who is demanding justice for a rape victim and threatening to set fire to the stadium. This email is entirely unrelated to the previous two emails. While we believe it poses no credible risk, we promptly reported the matter to the authorities for investigation," he Pawan revealed plans to request the Home Department to appoint a special officer to oversee security, a measure typically reserved for high-alert occasions like Independence Day (August 15) and Republic Day (Jan 26).
