TOKYO - Radioactive water is still leaking after engineers injected a polymer-based powder into pipes leading to a pit connected to Tokyo Electric Power's troubled No 2 reactor's building of Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant.

A 20-centimeter crack has been found to be spewing radioactive water into the Pacific Ocean, local media reported Sunday.
