Vaishno Devi, one of the holiest shrine of Hinduism is under high alerts due to the security threat and again it has something to do with sinister terror outfit LeT. This time they sent an e-mail threatening to avenge the execution of terrorist Ajmal Kasab. The email has been traced to Bangalore and was reportedly sent by the Lashkar-e-Toiba to a hotelier in Katra.
According to the police, the email was received by AH Bhat, the owner of Devi Grand hotel, on November 24 threatening to target the shrine. While authorities in Vaishno Devi are on high alert, the Karnataka police have seized the computer and other equipments from which the email was sent.
Efforts are on to decode the email and find the sender. "We know that an email was sent from here. We are investigating that. We can't share the details of the mail as it hasn't come to us," Bangalore police commissioner Jyoti Prakash Mirji said.
