Explosives stolen from building site

An international hunt is on for several kilos of explosives that have been stolen from a railway construction site.

They went missing in July, but the details have just been made public by the Swiss Attorney General. 

Authorities are being tight lipped about the theft, but it's thought at least one person is being questioned.

The explosives were to be used in the construction of a new road in canton Basel-Country. 

It’s thought they will be out of the country, probably either France or Germany.
