Shillong: An e-mail, purportedly sent by the Indian Mujahideen, has threatened that the outfit will kill BJP leader L K Advani during his scheduled visit to Shillong on September 29.
The e-mail, written in patchy English, was dispatched to some local newspaper houses on Wednesday night sending the entire police machinery in the state into a tizzy.
Signed by self-styled North East Field Commander of IM, Ali Hussain Badr, the e-mail said Advani's "Hindutva demand has pushed India into a fascist mould".
Meanwhile, the senior police officials held a high-level meeting with Chief Minister Donkupar Roy.
Police visited a newspaper house where the e-mail was sent and read it.
"We can't say anything now, we are trying to trace the IP address," a senior police official said, adding that prime facie it appeared that the e-mail was sent from Shillong itself.
