According to the customs administration the radioactivity inside the wagons has been 3000 times higher than allowed. The radiating on the surface of the wagons has been 300 times more than the norm.

A new checkup, conducted by the customs service, confirmed the strong radiation. The whole train composition has been returned to Bulgaria.

The customs administration in Dimitrovgrad, however, doesn’t give any information on what the load of the Bulgarian wagons was and what was the final destination of the train.
