A "disgruntled" worker could be behind the leak of a radioactive substance into drinking water at an atomic power plant in southern India, police say.
Preliminary investigations suggested it was an "inside job", a senior police officer told the BBC.
Police have moved into the Kaiga plant on the west coast of India, 450km (280 miles) from the city of Bangalore.
Fifty-five workers needed medical help for exposure to radiation after tritium contaminated a water cooler.
The Kaiga plant is highly protected and outsiders have little access to it.
