The Intermediate Court hearings in District Court in Industrial Court and Family Court were immediately postponed and in a short time the building was evacuated. However, after thoroughly inspected the courtrooms and corridors, the Bomb Disposal Unit of the Special Mobile Force (SMF) found that the warning was given nothing but a bad joke taste.
