MUMBAI: The Maharashtra Anti-Terrorism Squad (ATS) arrested a Kerala resident on Friday for allegedly threatening to blow up the Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj International Airport if he was not paid “one million US dollars in Bitcoin”.
The Mumbai International Airport Limited, which operates the airport, received a threatening email on Thursday, with the text, “This is final warning to your airport. We will blast the terminal-2 within 48 hours unless 1 million dollars in Bitcoin”.
