USA DUA: The luxury St Regis Hotel received a bomb threat via sms on Monday night, but so far police have found no signs of explosives.

The threat was received six times in different messages by a staff member of the five-star hotel.

One of the messages said a fugitive was staying in the hotel's room 101.

The sender said he had planned to book room 103.

In his final message, he said explosives would be detonated on midnight of Dec. 3.

Members of the police's special antiterrorist Detachment 88 and the mobile brigade arrived immediately at the hotel to check the suspected rooms (101 and 103).

Bali Police spokesman Sr. Com Gde Sugianyar Dwiputra said the police had not found any explosives at the hotel.
