    A bomb threat was issued to the Poes Garden residence of Vice President C P Radhakrishnan, and it appears to be a hoax, police said on Friday.

    Following the email threat sent to the office of the Assistant Commissioner of Police here, a police team consisting of experts from the Bomb Detection and Disposal Squad (BDDS) and a sniffer dog was rushed to the Vice President’s house and a thorough check was undertaken.

    "The threat appears to be a hoax," a police official said. The Chennai police have been receiving scores of such email threats for the past month, and efforts were on to trace the sender.
