Amid terror alerts that militants would strike at many places across the country before the Republic Day, the Chhatrapati Shivaji International Airport today received an anonymous call threatening to blow up the airport.

"The Bomb Threat Assessment Committee (BTAC) of the airport reviewed the call at 7.30 pm and concluded that it was non-specific," the spokesperson said further.

When contacted an airport police official confirmed that his station has been intimated about the terror threat, but refused to share more information.
