POLICE have been warned not to handcuff themselves to a fugitive whose medical treatment has made him radioactive.
POLICE are hunting down a man whose medical treatment has made him radioactive.
Thomas Marius Leopold, 42, didn't appear at a court hearing in London this week on child pornography charges.
His lawyer Jeannie Mackay told the court his treatment for a thyroid problem made him radioactive.
"Please warn officers that when he is arrested he might be radioactive," Judge John Price said.
"This is not a joke."
It's likely Mr Leopold is being treated with radioactive iodine for an overactive thyroid, according to Royal Victoria Infirmary radiation protection adviser Mike Keir, who claimed the risk to police and the public was minimal.
