Bomb Threat

Greek police disclosed yesterday that they had received a bomb threat, before the Athens Olympic Games opening ceremony.

However, despite that fact that the stadium had 70000 people inside, they did not evacuate it.

The bomb scare was no more than that, a hoax.

The police received more than 80 other bomb threats during the course of the Games.
