 "Bomb hoax triggers panic at Bengaluru airport; sends officials into tizzy")
The security apparatus at the Kempegowda International Airport in Bengaluru went into a tizzy in the wee hours of Friday following a hoax call about the presence of a bomb.
According to police, the airport police control room received a call at about 3.45 AM resulting in a vigorous drill for the security personnel deployed there.
After about three and half hours of search, the officials concluded that it was a hoax call.
"We are still working on the info but it seems it was a hoax call," a police official told PTI.
The police have launched an investigation to find out the caller.
