London, Oct 19 (ANI): It has emerged that an Indian working at a BT call centre reportedly threatened to bomb a customer's house.

 

Alan Wardle, 24, of Wallsend, North Tyneside, got into a row with the helpline adviser when he could not connect to the Internet.

 

But after he put the phone down disgust, the adviser called him back and said: "I will blow your house up.

I will hurt you."

 

"I couldn't believe what I'd heard. I was incensed," the Daily Star quoted Wardle as saying.

 

"It doesn't get much worse than a stranger saying he is going to blow you up," Wardle added.

 

Police are investigating the claim and a BT spokesman said an "urgent" probe had been launched. (ANI)
