Earlier this month, a schoolboy was held from Lucknow by police in Uttar Pradesh’s Noida for allegedly sending an email to a media house threatening to assassinate Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Yogi Adityanath.

A report by PTI quoted Assistant Commissioner of Police (Noida) Rajneesh Verma saying that the 16-year-old boy, a resident of Bihar, was brought to Noida and was produced in a juvenile court. He was granted bail later.

Conspiracy to assassinate PM Modi

On Sunday, police arrested a person who wrote a letter threatening to launch a suicide bomb attack on PM Modi during his visit to Kochi on 24 April.

Kerala BJP chief K Surendran, on Saturday, said he received a letter last week about a conspiracy to assassinate the Prime Minister.
