NSW:Mosman bomb probe will be long: Scipione

NSW Police Commissioner ANDREW SCIPIONE says investigations into a bomb hoax involving
a Sydney schoolgirl will be lengthy.

A bomb squad was called to a harbour-view home at Mosman on Wednesday afternoon, after
a balaclava-clad man placed a collared device around the neck of 18-year-old Year 12 student
MADELEINE PULVER.

Commissioner SCIPIONE says the investigation is well advanced, but he expects a long
investigation and declined to say if police are any closer to catching the suspected extortionist.

He also praised Constable KAREN LOWDEN, who sat with Ms PULVER for the first three
hours of her tense ordeal.
