But it's not clear that it was actually "weapons grade uranium" either. From the same story:

The Anatolian agency on Sunday quoted Sanliurfa's provincial governor Muzaffer Dilek as saying experts had yet to determine the amount of uranium but that intelligence agents believed it only weighed about 100 grams.

Dilek also said police charged the two men in connection with the case but released them pending trial.

"These people said they believe that what was given to them was medical material," he said, adding police were now looking for two other suspects.


Today's story:

Two Turks had been detained for smuggling the uranium, but they were later released for lack of evidence, the daily Hurriyet Monday quoted provincial Gov. Muzaffer Dilek as saying. Dilek was not immediately available for comment Monday. story.news.yahoo.com
