Three men have been detained in Switzerland on suspicion of planning a bomb attack against the Swiss subsidiary of a major international company, the official Swissinfo.ch news website reported on Sunday.

The three men, two Italians and a Swiss living in Italy, were held on April 15 during a police traffic control in the canton of Zurich, the website quoted the federal prosecutor's office as saying, Xinhua reported.
