Alert at Saket Court

After the security checks are completed, court proceedings may be allowed to resume after lunch. In a notice issued by Anil Basoya, Advocate, Honorary Secretary of the Saket Court Bar Association, members were informed that due to a security issue in the court premises, all court work was temporarily suspended for the next two hours. The information urged all members to remain calm, cooperate with authorities, and avoid unnecessary crowding or panic.

 

 

Such threats have been received before

This is not the first time Delhi courts have faced such threats. In September, the Delhi High Court also received an email containing a bomb threat, forcing judges to abruptly leave their courts and evacuate the premises. These incidents have raised serious questions about the security of the courts.
