Bomb threat call at Churchgate station turns hoax

The Railway Protection Force (RPF) control room received



an anonymous call around 11 am. The information was conveyed to Anti-Terrorist Squad (ATS), Crime Branch. Local police and a team of Mumbai ATS immediately sprung into action.

A dog squad was also called and investigation is underway.
