Threat against Kapil
The email carrying the death threat states, “We are monitoring your recent activities and we believe it is important that we bring to your attention a sensitive matter.

The FIR was registered against this unknown person under section 351(3) of the Indian Penal Code, which deals with the threat of harm, at the Amboli police station in Mumbai. The police claimed the email has been sent from Pakistan on December 14. The recepient has been asked to reply within eight hours otherwise they’d face consequences on the personal and professional front.
