In 1969, South Asian women in Coventry who thought they were being given freshly made chapatis which were good for them ended up being part of a dangerous medical study. Unbeknown to them - the chapatis contained radioactive isotopes which was exposed in a documentary film in the late 90s produced by film-maker John Brownlow Called Deadly Experiments for Channel 4. Now Coventry North MP Taiwo Owatemi is calling for a full investigation to now take place.
