Mystery of French citizen who came into contact with explosive substance

The Internal Security Agency (ABW) has found traces of yet an unrecognized substance on the clothes of a 23-year-old French man, Mikael Neyrolles, who was arrested while taking photographs of a gas facility in Swarzędz. The same substance was found on the hands of his Polish friend Elżbieta S. It is suspected that the substance is a trace of one of the strongest known explosives. "This is definetly not a mistake. The only question is in what circumstances the man had contact with the explosives," reveals a policeman engaged in the investigation. The French man's lawyers are planning to appeal against the court decision to hold him under arrest. "We still have ground to keep him temporarily imprisoned," declared the prosecutor. Mikael Neyrolles is being charged of preparing to blow up the gas facility. (Gazeta Wyborcza, p. 3; Rzeczpospolita, p. A4) A.K.
