Pakistan calls for probe into illicit Uranium sale in India

Posted By: Fahim Ahmed June 4, 2021

ISLAMABAD: (HRNW) Pakistan on Friday expressed deep concern over yet another incident of attempted illegal sale of six kilogram of Uranium in India.

Responding to media queries about reports of attempted illicit Uranium sales in India, Foreign Office spokesperson Zahid Hafeez Chaudhri said, “We have seen the reports about yet another incident of attempted illegal sale of 6 kg of Uranium in India.”

He maintained that a similar incident involving 7 kg of Uranium in the Indian state of Maharashtra last month and other such reports in the past are a matter of deep concern as they point to lax controls, poor regulatory and enforcement mechanisms, as well as possible existence of a black market for nuclear materials inside India.
