The Citizens’ Group for Measuring Radioactive Environment at
Facilities for the 2020 Tokyo Olympics claims wind-borne radiation
from the four crippled reactors at the Fukushima nuclear plant has
contaminated a number of future venues.

Measurements were taken at 39 sporting venues that have been earmarked

“We found caesium-137 at almost every place we carried out tests, and
there was no caesium here before the accident at Fukushima,” Mitsuo
Tanaka, a member of the group, told the South China Morning Post.
