In the incident on Oct. 15, German authorities arrested seven suspected smugglers and seized 6.6 pounds of uranium from a car in a Munich parking lot. The uranium was at first thought to be enriched, or weapons grade, but subsequently was found to be either fuel pellets from a Soviet reactor or uranium oxide, a nuclear fuel freely available on the market. No nuclear materials seized in the West so far could be made into a bomb. This article is copyright 1992 The Los Angeles Times Home Edition.
