`Russian man made bomb threat` at Amsterdam airport
Dutch military police say that a man they arrested for making a bomb threat at Amsterdam's Schiphol airport was a 40-year-old Russian citizen, Radio Liberty reported.
Military police spokesman Martijn Peelen is quoted in Western news agencies as saying that "the man [is] a 40-year-old Russian, who does not speak Dutch or English."
The Russian Embassy in the Netherlands said it could not immediately confirm whether the suspect is a Russian citizen.
The suspect allegedly told people at the airport on February 13 that he had a bomb, before locking himself in a restroom above the airport's busy Terminal One and Two departure halls, prompting an evacuation of passengers.
He was later detained by Dutch police.
No bomb has been found.
