An anonymous letter, reminiscent of the recent Rameswaram Cafe bombing, has ignited tension in Bengaluru's Kadamba Hotel, near the HMT ground. The Jalahalli police swiftly responded to the alarming message, mobilising a bomb squad and K-9 unit to thoroughly investigate the premises.

The letter, delivered to the Jalahalli police station, not only warned of a bomb planted in the hotel but also contained abusive language towards law enforcement officials. In a shocking twist, the letter also claimed responsibility for the Rameswaram Cafe explosion and accused the sender of orchestrating the Kadamba Hotel threat.
