Bengaluru/IBNS: An ex-employee of Tata Consultancy Services (TCS) Wednesday made a hoax bomb threat call to the group's office in Bengaluru's Electronic City leading to a massive panic, reports said.

The call was made by a former TCS employee, residing in Belagavi, some 500 km from Bengaluru, who was angry after she was let go, according to the police. She was also under alcohol influence

The woman made the call to a driver of the company and allegedly said that a bomb had been planted in the B Block of the campus.
