A spokesman for Air China has clarified that it's an engine malfunction, not fire, that forced its Paris-Beijing flight to make urgent landing in midway on Friday.

The spokesman issued an online statement on Saturday, saying an unexpected lubricating oil pressure reduction in the No.1 engine on the plane's left wing caused the emergency landing. No fire was found during the incident, Xinhua News Agency reported.

An expert group of the company has been dispatched to check the plane and solve the problem.

The flight, CA934, took more than an hour to land at the Moscow airport on Friday after the crew found abnormality in the engine. Earlier reports said it's the fire in the outer engine of the right wing that led to the landing.

More than 200 passengers and crew members were on board. No casualty was reported during the emergency.

Passengers later left by embarking other flights.
