Why were they at a water plant, in the middle of the night.
Taking measurements or adding 'what' to the water?
CAIRO, Egypt (AP) - Authorities released an Egyptian chemist Tuesday who was detained for questioning following the July 7 bombings in London, an Interior Ministry official said.
Magdy el-Nashar had been sought by Britain in connection with the attacks in London, which killed at least 56 people, including four bombers, in explosions on London's Underground and on a bus. El-Nashar was arrested by the Egyptians soon after the bombings, and officials from Scotland Yard travelled to Egypt to attend his questioning.
An official from the ministry's media office said he was released after authorities found no evidence against him and no links to either the attacks or to al-Qaida.
"He is at home," said the official on condition of anonymity because he was speaking before an announcement from the ministry.
"There is nothing against him," the official said when asked whether el-Nashar would be extradited to Britain. Egypt has previously said it would not hand him over.
A spokeswoman for London's Metropolitan Police had no comment, saying it was a matter for Egyptian authorities. The force has previously said it was liaising closely with the Egyptians following the July 7 bombings, but hasn't identified el-Nashar as a suspect.
El-Nashar, 33, who briefly studied at a North Carolina university and obtained a doctorate from Leeds University in England, was detained at the request of the British government, which suspected him of links to some of the four bombers, three of whom were from the northern city of Leeds.
Traces of TATP, used by bomber Richard Reid who failed in 2001 to blow up an airplane with explosives in his shoes, were reportedly found in el-Nashar's apartment during raids in Leeds.
