Six passengers are being questioned over a suspect device found on an Air France plane that forced the flight to make an emergency landing in Kenya, a Kenyan police official told Associated Press.
The police official said during the flight, from Mauritius to Paris, a passenger noticed something in a lavatory that looked like "a stopwatch mounted on a box."
He reported the device to the cabin crew, who informed the pilots, leading to an emergency landing at Moi International Airport in Mombasa.
The official said one of those being interrogated is the man who reported the package.
