French investigators have found no evidence that a passenger who did not show up for a trans-Atlantic flight might be an Afghan-trained al-Qaida sympathizer armed with a bomb, police said Thursday.
ABC News reported this week that European authorities were searching for a man with alleged al-Qaida links who failed to board a Paris-to-Los Angeles flight on Christmas Eve one of six Air France flights canceled amid security fears.
ABC reported that the passenger had a French passport, was believed to have undergone training in Afghanistan and was feared to have a small bomb that might evade airport security.
But French police, distancing themselves from earlier comments by France's justice minister who said a no-show passenger is being sought, said they had no reason to believe that an al-Qaida bomber is on the loose.
"French intelligence services in constant touch with American partners conducted additional investigations that produced no new indications that could confirm the theory put forward by American media," said a police spokeswoman, who declined to be named.
"The investigations turned up nothing to show that there was somebody with al-Qaida links carrying a bomb," she added. "There is nothing, nothing, nothing at this time that suggests something is amiss."
Secretary of State Colin Powell, asked Wednesday if there was a single potential terrorist at large who is a source of grave concern, also said he was "not aware of any one particular individual who is loose."
