Indian police will question Google over a lack of safeguards after smashing a criminal network that set up and managed more than 500,000 fake Gmail accounts to send hoax bomb threats to government offices. The investigation began after a bomb threat email received by the state government on September 10, days ahead of the recent BRICS summit in New Delhi. Two individuals have been arrested, and police plan to formally designate Google as a subject of the investigation.
