Police information 
 
There are three publications which the section specialising in 
“Offences involving explosives and fires” at the Federal 
Criminal Police Office (BKA) has drawn up for the Land 
criminal police offices and affected companies. These 
contain information on initial measures in case of bomb 
threats and on procedures on receipt of mail which is 
suspected of containing explosives or biological or chemical 
agents. The publications are available from the competent 
Land criminal police offices (see addresses p. 76). 
In view of the substantial danger which such mail poses to 
people, precautionary measures should be planned to 
minimise the level of risk. In addition to basic staff training,
