Quoted:
Have heard various unattributed quotes from unidentified sources to the effect that Gov't is more concerned about nuke/radiation devices than they're letting on to general public.
At this point, very little would surprise me.

raf, having thought a little more I'm pretty sure this was a Congressman who had been holding hearings for years that no one listened to.
He had a "CIA" built prop that including the devise was little larger than a briefcase - not a suitcase ! (One Kiloton prop)
Further he said the Soviets had made some that looked like the suitcases we have heard about but others were made to look like backpacks, even "rocks."
He also referenced a "French", gag, choke author that had done a lot of research on this topic and who had checked out as legit.
The FBI had talked with the Congressman the afternoon before he went on TV and were also scheduled to interview the French author.
As I recall over eighty so-called suitcase-nukes are missing from the Soviet/Russian arsenal.
