“Since the killing of Kashmiri Pandit employee Rahul Bhat in 2022, these threat letters have been coming continuously. We do not know where these threats are coming from. I do not think even security agencies have been able to determine their source. I believe this is the 36th or 37th threat letter that has arrived since.”
