Border guards in Kazakhstan have arrested a man for trying to smuggle a home-made grenade in a pot of honey, local media reported on Friday.

The man, a Russian citizen, was travelling by train from the Russian town of Omsk.

"The pot seemed too heavy so it had to be checked," a senior Kazakh border official told the Kazakhstan Today news agency.

The man told police he did not know it was a grenade and that his wife had given it to him as a present for her relatives in Kazakhstan.
