Authorities in Mumbai have arrested individuals in connection with separate threatening communications.

In the first incident, the Mumbai Crime Branch arrested Mohammad Sharif, a security guard, following threatening WhatsApp calls and voice messages sent to a businessman. Investigators found evidence on Sharif’s mobile phone indicating contact with a Pakistani phone number, and the probe is examining his connections to Pakistan-administered Kashmir.

In a separate case, the Bhopal Crime Branch arrested a man in Mumbai for issuing death threats against Madhya Pradesh Chief Minister Mohan Yadav. The suspect allegedly sent offensive messages to the Dial-112 emergency helpline and attempted to hide his actions by editing and deleting the messages. Preliminary findings suggest the suspect may have been attempting to frame his own father.
