Police in the north-eastern Indian state of Meghalaya say they have arrested five people on charges of smuggling uranium ore.WHO COULD THEY POSSIBLY SELL URANIUM ORE TO!? AN D WHAT WOULD THEIR INTENTIONS BE?
Only one packet of unprocessed uranium was found on them, but the police say the gang could have stolen more.
It is not clear how much ore the group had, or what it planned to do with it.
... Police are not sure whether those detained were part of an organised global enterprise, or simply some amateurs, trying to make some quick money.
The seizure was made in the village of Mairang on Monday when police detained four people, including a village headman, for stealing a quantity of uranium.
A fifth man surrendered to the police on Tuesday after police carried out a search of the area.
"We seized a packet, just one packet, containing uranium ore from a village headman. It has the seal of India's Atomic Minerals Division, so we are taking this very seriously," said M Kharkrang, police superintendent of West Khasi Hills district in Meghalaya.
Mr Khakrang said they were looking for the son of an employee of the Atomic Minerals Division - , which looks after the country's uranium mines - who is alleged to have stolen the packet from Domiosiat.
STAY TUNED...
