Authorities in Kyrgyzstan say they have arrested two men who were trying to sell a large quantity of plutonium on the black market.
The men were detained last week near the capital, Bishkek, but the news was not immediately released.
There has been growing concern that radioactive materials from former Soviet military or research sites could fall into the hands of extremists.
