Mintegy 30 tonna, robbanóanyagként is használható ammónium-nitrát eltűnése ügyében nyomoznak az amerikai hatóságok – derül ki a helyi idő szerint vasárnap nyilvánosságra hozott hivatalos iratokból.
A vegyi anyag eltűnését még április végén észlelték, két héttel azután, hogy elhagyta a robbanószer-gyártó üzemet Wyoming államban, és május 10-én jelentették be a környezeti veszélyhelyzetek kezelésével foglalkozó szövetségi központnál (National Response Center).
A vasúti kocsiban szállított ammónium-nitrát úticélja Kaliforniában a Mojave-sivatag volt, ott fedezték fel az eltűnést is, amikor kinyitották. A hivatalos iratok szerint a vasúti kocsi zárja látszólag érintetlen volt, amikor elérte a rendeltetési helyet.
A vizsgálatot a szövetségi vasúti hatóság (Federal Railroad Administration), a kaliforniai közszolgáltatások bizottsága (California Publis Utilities Commission), a Union Pacific vasúttársaság és a gyártócég, a Dyno Nobel közösen folytatja.
A vállalat közleménye szerint elképzelhető, hogy a vasúti kocsi alsó kieresztő-nyílásán keletkezett résen keresztül szállítás közben szóródott ki a teljes szállítmány. Egyelőre semmi nem utal arra, hogy a vegyi anyagot szándékosan távolították volna el és amennyiben fokozatosan, kis mennyiségekben szóródott ki és került a környezetbe, az nem jelent kockázatot a lakosságra, sem a vasúti közlekedésre – közölte a robbanószer-gyártással foglalkozó cég.
Az okok pontos kiderítésére a vasúti szerelvény teljes útvonalát átvizsgálják.
Az ammónium-nitrát műtrágyaként robbanószerként egyaránt használható. 1995-ben ezt használták az Oklahoma City-ben elkövetett merénylet során, amelyben 168 ember meghalt, 2020-ban pedig ammónium-nitrát robbanása okozta a bejrúti kikötői detonációt is, amely 218 ember halálát okozta és megsemmisítette Libanon gabonakészleteinek nagy részét.

Pireusz kikötőjében több mint négy tonna marihuánát találtak egy konténerben – közölték a görög bűnüldözési hatóságok pénteken. A szállítmány Libanonból Szlovákiába tartott, feketepiaci értéke nagyjából 33 millió euró.
A konténer vasúton jutott volna el Szlovákiába. A drogról a görög hatóságok Athénban működő amerikai nyomozóktól kaptak fülest. Egyelőre nem ismert, hogy ki állhat a drogszállítmány mögött és az ügyben még nem voltak őrizetbe vételek.
Délkelet-Európa a marihuánacsempészet egyik központjának számít a kontinensen.
Ausztriában is nagyobb mennyiségű drogot foglaltak le
A nap folyamán az osztrák rendőrség is drogfogásról tett bejelentést. A tájékoztatás szerint 2,5 millió euró értékben sikerült hasist lefoglalni egy teherautó átkutatása során.
A kábítószert egy csempéket szállító teherautóban rejtették el, amely Spanyolországból tartott Svédországba.
A teherautót a német–osztrák határon található Kufstein településen tartóztatták fel.
Rendőrségi kutyákkal vizsgáltatták át, és így bukkantak az összesen 261 kilogramm kábítószerre. Az osztrák rendőrség szerint a 47 éves sofőr állítását, hogy nem tudott a rejtett rakományról, hitelt érdemlőnek találták.
