The Mumbai police on Friday made public content of the letter found inside explosives laden car parked near billionair­e Mukesh Ambani's residence and said that it was a threat letter terming the incident as trailer and warning of returning with more preparatio­n next time to target the family.

According to the police, it is a handwritte­n letter in a broken English, addressed to Mukesh Ambani and his wife Neeta Ambani. The police has stated that there are grammar mistakes in the letter and the writer is either not much educated

or is pretending to be so.

The letter was found on next to driver's seat.

Scanning of the CCTV has also revealed that even though the said SUV was parked on the Carmichael Road near Ambani's residence Antilia at around 1am however, the driver of the car sat in the car post 3am. The driver came out of the car from the rear door of the car but could not be identified, as he was wearing a mask as well as a hoodie.

The police is scanning CCTVs of nearby areas to locate the driver. The police will enhance the quality of the CCTV footage to identify the suspect,

Maharashtr­a home minister Anil Deshmukh has said that if needed security cover of Ambani family will be enhanced.

It may be recalled that a car carrying unassemble­d explosive materials was found abandoned at Carmichael Road in South Mumbai on Thursday evening, near the house of Reliance Industries chairman Mukesh Ambani.
