I'm not that concerned for several reasons.
1) We don't actually know that happened. The only facts here are a raw story link and a whole bunch of "unnamed sources" that say the guy had jars "labeled uranium" and that he supposedly purchased them from an American company.
2) Even if true, this isn't that shocking. You can buy tiny amounts of radioactive material from all sorts of places. Uranium Ore Nothing illegal or particularly terrifying about that.
3) With the level of weapons knowledge that any individual or small group has, uranium is an incredibly ineffective weapon. It's only really dangerous in the hands of state actors or groups with similar levels of resources.
Thorium is used on aircraft for strength I believe, It is not hard to find....
Tritium is more dangerous and anyone can buy it here:
