A bomb threat at the Hyderabad City Civil Court on Tuesday morning, July 8, 2025, prompted a large-scale evacuation and search operation. The threat, reportedly delivered via email to the Chief Justice, triggered immediate panic and a mass exodus of judges, lawyers, clients, and court staff from the premises.

Law enforcement agencies, including bomb disposal squads and sniffer dog units, were dispatched to the scene to conduct a thorough search of the court complex. The proceedings were immediately halted, and security protocols were activated to ensure the safety of everyone present.

Initial reports suggest the possibility of the threat being a hoax, but authorities are not taking any chances and are proceeding with a full-scale investigation. Police are currently examining CCTV footage and phone records in an attempt to trace the source of the threat. The origin of the threat, whether it was a call, letter, or email, is yet to be officially confirmed.

As of now, there have been no reports of any injuries or discovery of suspicious objects. The search operation is still ongoing as authorities meticulously sweep the building. The Inspector of Mirchowk is closely involved in the investigation.

The incident has caused considerable disruption to the normal functioning of the court, with all proceedings suspended until further notice. The safety and security of the court personnel and visitors remain the top priority as the investigation progresses. Further details from officials are awaited.
