The Radiological Accident in Tammiku
On 21 October 1994, three brothers entered the radioactive waste repository at Tammiku, Estonia, without authorization and removed a metal container enclosing a radiation source. This action initiated the sequence of events in a radiological accident.
The accident resulted in the death of one person and injury to a number of others. The death was not originally attributed to radiation exposure. However, a physician who examined the injuries of the stepson of the dead person realized the radiological nature of the accident and initiated the rescue actions that limited the extent of the consequences.
