Bomb at Turkish Embassy in Greece proves false alarm
11 March 2010 / TODAY'S ZAMAN WITH WIRES, İSTANBUL
A phoned-in bomb threat at the Turkish Embassy in Athens has been proven false, the Anatolia news agency reported yesterday. Turkish Ambassador to Greece Hasan Göğüş said, “We received a threatening phone call, but it turned out to be a hoax.”
An unidentified person called the Elefterotipiya newspaper, published in Athens, at 11:30 a.m. yesterday and claimed that a bomb at the Turkish Embassy would explode within 15 minutes. Police took immediate security measures, evacuating the embassy building and closing the streets in the surrounding area to traffic after the threat. A thorough search at the embassy proved that the threat was false, as no bomb or explosives were found. Police records show that there have been numerous bomb threats in Athens recently.
