Police say more than 100 disturbing letters have been sent to parliamentarians, religious groups and community leaders, and they are concerned the campaign could escalate. The letters are believed to come from an individual who uses the name “Scorpio.” According to reports, recipients include people in positions of public and community leadership, and the content has prompted heightened attention from law enforcement and community stakeholders. Police fear that if the letters continue or intensify, it could pose an increasing risk to those targeted. The situation is being treated as an active investigation, with authorities working to identify the author and determine the scope and purpose of the correspondence. Outlets report that the letters have reached a wide range of organisations and individuals, suggesting the sender may have selected multiple targets rather than a single recipient. Police have not publicly confirmed additional details about the letters’ specific threats or any direct claims of responsibility beyond the alleged “Scorpio” attribution. The investigation is ongoing.
