Radioactive substance stolen in Japan
A radioactive substance that can be used to make a dirty bomb has been stolen in Japan, police and officials said Tuesday, warning the public not to go near it. ADVERTISEMENT A sealed metal container holding a small amount of iridium 192 was stolen on Monday from the office near Tokyo of a company that inspects industrial products, police said.
Iridium 192 is commonly used in cancer radiation treatment but it is also cited in scenarios by anti-terrorism investigators as an ingredient for a makeshift nuclear bomb.
Yep, iridium 192.
I was hoping the suspect may have been located by now, but apparently not yet.
from your article link - snippet:
“A security camera at the warehouse caught a person wearing a baseball cap and work tunic carrying away the 22-kilogramme (48.4-pound) container, the company and police said.
“We are examining the tape and looking for the person,” a police spokesman said.”
