Police found no bomb in Sochi courthouse

Explosive experts have found the bag, after detection of which people were evacuated from the building of the Tsentralny District Court in Sochi, not dangerous.

The "Caucasian Knot" has reported that today at noon policemen urgently evacuated all the people from the above courthouse in Sochi after court marshals reported about some ownerless bag.

Half an hour later, explosive experts arrived to the place, examined the suspicious bag and reported that "there was no cause for concern."

All the evacuated people returned to the courthouse.

The bag that aroused suspicion among court marshals turned out to be a cosmetic bag. It contained personal hygiene items. No explosives were found there; it was taken by policemen for an additional examination. The owner of the bag was not found.
