Hoax bomb call to Praja Bhavan stemmed from couple dispute

The hoax bomb call to Praja Bhavan on Tuesday was traced back to a man named Shiva Kumar, who was angered by his wife’s refusal to answer his calls. Kumar, described as an alcohol addict prone to arguments with his wife, fabricated the bomb threat, prompting a large-scale response from police and bomb squad teams. He falsely claimed that bombs were planted at multiple locations across the city.
