He added, “We are caught in a bind here. I do not want to amplify or give too much credence to such extremists, who make threats and get a lot of coverage. On the other hand, we take this seriously and in this particular matter, we know we have taken up the matter with the US and Canadian authorities.”

Following Pannun’s release of the threat message, Delhi Police said that they are on alert. The attack occurs during a Parliament sitting.
