Kharar: At a time when Indian students in Australia are facing racial attacks, a resident of Kharar in Punjab on Tuesday claimed that he had received a threat call from Canberra, asking him to call back his son settled in Adelaide.
Bhushan Lal, a municipal council clerk, said he received a threat call from a number in Australia on June 13 over which the caller asked him to call back his son Amit Verma from Adelaide immediately or face the same consequences as other Indian students had met there in the recent past.
Lal claimed he had written a letter to Prime Minister Manmohan Singh and other top Central and state government officials seeking protection of his son and also action against the unidentified caller.
He wrote that his 27-year-old son Amit, daughter-in-law Nishi and couple's two-year-old daughter Uvika had left for Australia in March and presently they were settled in Adelaide.
