Reliance Industries Limited chairman Mukesh Ambani has received an extortion-cum-death threat via email, officials said here on Saturday.

The email demanding Rs 20 crore threatens to shoot Ambani, 66, if he fails to cough up the amount.

A company source, while confirming the development, declined to comment saying the police are probing the matter.

A complaint has been registered by the Gamdevi police station and investigation has begun into the antecedents of the email threat.

In the past few years, Ambani and his family have been repeatedly threatened.

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
