Supreme Court receives anonymous threat letter

Date:

New Delhi: There’s yet another threat, this time, the Supreme Court has received an anonymous email threatening that it will be blown up.

After this threat, which came last weekend, anti-sabotage checks have been increased in the court.

This isn’t the first time the apex court is receiving such a threat, though. Hot on heels of Yakub Memon’s hanging, an anonymous threat had been received by Justice Dipak Misra, who was on the panel that refused to stop his hanging in the 1993 blasts case.

The letter, which was found by security guards in the backyard of the judge’s home in Delhi, said in Hindi: “irrespective of the protection you may avail, we will eliminate you.”

Speaking on the threat to Justice Dipak Misra, the Chief Justice of India, HL Dattu, had said the Supreme Court had taken measures to deal with such threats. “Our job is to decide the cases and we do it without fear. We do our job and leave the rest,” said the top judge.
