Cairo, 23 Feb-(ANA)-Egyptian police are questioning three suspects over the bombing of a Cairo market that killed one person and injured 20 others, officials say.
They were detained near the market shortly after the blast, police said.
It happened at an open-air hotel cafe packed with tourists in the Khan al-Khalili area - a major attraction and home to a prominent mosque.
French President Nicolas Sarkozy has expressed "deep sorrow" at the death of a French teenager in the blast.
Police said they thought the device had been thrown from a balcony. It is not yet known who was responsible.
There have been conflicting reports the bomb, which is believed to have been home-made, may have been left under a bench.
"Three people there were arrested on the site as suspects after the attack," AFP quoted a police official as saying on Monday. "Others are being questioned as witnesses." (ANA)
