The Mumbai police encountered yet another case of the little boy who cried wolf. The Anti Terrorism Squad (ATS) and Crime Branch officials were on their toes since Thursday after a call to a Goregaon-based office, in which the caller said he was calling from Pakistan to tell them that terrorist Dawood Ibrahim had a nuclear bomb trained on Mumbai.

However, when the cops tracked down the caller, they realised it was a 19-year-old farm boy from Latur, who simply wanted to have some fun through a prank call. The teenager, identified as Anil Khilare, was arrested. The cops said he is a below-average student, who comes from a poor family.
