Antilia bomb scare: No record of Jaish ul Hind, cryptocurrency address doesn't exist, says Mumbai Police

Mumbai Police is probing a bomb scare outside Reliance Industries owner Mukesh Ambani's Mumbai home Antilia. A lesser-known terror outfit called 'Jaish ul Hind' first claimed and later denied responsibility of the threat.

The Mumbai Police, which is probing the threat to Reliance Industries owner Mukesh Ambani and his family, says it has no record of any outfit called 'Jaish ul Hind'. Claiming to be a terror group, Jaish ul Hind had earlier claimed responsibility for leaving explosives in an abandoned car outside Ambani's home Antilia in Mumbai. However, a second statement by the lesser-known outfit Jaish ul Hind later said that it had nothing to do with the bomb scare outside the Ambanis' residence. Interestingly, the first message from Jaish ul Hind which Mumbai Police now claims is fake even had a cryptocurrency (Monero) address. It was on this address that a ransom had been sought.
