Mumbai: Reserve Bank of India (RBI) Governor Raghuram Rajan has received an e-mail threatening to eliminate him. As per reports, Rajan had received the mail earlier this month from the ID [email protected]. As the ID bears the name of Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS), the Mumbai Police is not taking it lightly. Maharashtra's Additional Chief Secretary (Home) KP Bakshi, meanwhile, said that the security detail of Rajan has been tightened.
According to a newspaper report, the email says: “I have been given money by somebody to eliminate you. If you will pay me more than I have been paid, then we can decide on it.” Mumbai police commissioner Rakesh Maria confirmed the development. “We have received a complaint that a threat e-mail was sent to the RBI governor. The email also contained the name of ISIS. We are not taking this lightly and all efforts are being made to trace the culprits,” Maria said.

As per the report, the Mumbai Police has approached the US-based Google Inc and sought details about the ID. The report further added that the e-mail ID was accessed from outside India. What has added to the mystery was the discovery that the mail ID was being accessed from 10 different countries, including Australia, Italy, US, Canada, Nigeria, Poland, Belgium, Germany, Hong Kong and Ukraine. Police suspect that a proxy Internet Protocol address was used to send the e-mail.
