The Visakhapatnam Airport Director received a letter from an anonymous person threatening to ‘target’ the Chief Ministers of Telangana and Andhra Pradesh. The mysterious man also threatened to blow up the Vizag Airport, the Sriharikota Space Research Center (SHAR) in Nellore and the ports in AP.

The Visakhapatnam city police commissioner Amit Garg said that the hand written Telugu letter has been traced out to Nirmal in Adilabad district in Telangana and that it was sent via post. However, the anonymous man did not divulge any details about his motives behind the threats.

The city police department is collecting the intelligence reports about the origination and the motive of the letter. Meanwhile, security has been beefed up at several important areas and installations in the two Telugu states, keeping the upcoming Amaravati foundation stone-laying ceremony which will be attended by national and international guests.
