The pilot diverted the flight from Ljubljana to Cologne after passengers reported that the men were talking about "terrorist matters", the statement said. The men were not identified.
"Investigations continue regarding the suspicion of preparations for a serious violent crime that could have jeopardised the state," the statement said.
