As per reports, the crime branch had been tipped off about nuke fuel being smuggled into the city and was working on the lead for quite some time, before it carried out the actual arrests.
Police, however, refused to divulge much information about the arrested people and would be disclose more in a press conference, scheduled for later in the day.
If the substance turns out to be uranium, then it would once again put a serious question mark on the security of the country as it has not been the first time, in recent weeks, when there had been a breach in the nuke security.
Incidentally, the Panvel incident comes to light just a day after two people were arrested while stealing computer parts from the Tarapur Atomic Power Station.
Also, there has been a shocking case of alleged radiation contamination at Karnatakas Kaiga Atomic Power Station recently.
The leak at Kaiga resulted in hospitalisation of over 50 workers of the nuke facility after they consumed the water contaminated by nuke fuel.
