"Irish police say they have seized explosives smuggled into the country as part of a test
of security procedures at Slovakia's Bratislava airport.

The Slovakian interior ministry had conveyed its "profound regret" to Irish Justice Minister Dermot Ahern
over the incident, which comes amid heightened security following
the failed Detroit plane bombing, Ahern's office said.

Sections of inner-city Dublin were sealed off on yesterday morning and homes and businesses were evacuated
as anti-terrorist police units and the Irish army bomb disposal experts raided an apartment in Dorset Street."

I can't understand why the original title says takes without quotation marks. It was authorities who put the explosives 
to his luggage.
