A Russian electronics engineer was taken into custody for four days, after authorities found him carrying what they suspected was a homemade bomb at Alexandria’s Borg El Arab Airport on Friday, Youm7 reports. The suspect, who was trying to board a Turkish Airlines flight to Istanbul, has reportedly denied the charges and told authorities that he is only carrying cables he uses for work. If the allegations are proven true, this would be the most ironic twists ever in the saga of airport security and Russian flights.
