Russian police say they have not found any explosive devices at three Moscow railway stations that were evacuated earlier in the day after a bomb scare, the TASS news agency reports.

TASS earlier said police had evacuated almost 3000 people on Monday from the Kazansky, Leningradsky and Yaroslavsky railway stations after receiving an anonymous bomb threat.

All three stations are located on the same square in central Moscow.
