Shillong: An abandoned box near a temple
created panic on Saturday in Meghalaya's Jowai town, 62 km east from here suspecting that a bomb was placed in it, police sources
said.
Shop keepers first spotted the box at a fish stall on
the footpath opposite to the temple, the sources said.
The police threw a cordon around the area and was
waiting for a bomb squad to arrive from Shillong, they added.
