One month after the spectacular burglary at the Louvre museum, the fourth presumed commando member was arrested on Tuesday, November 25, along with three other suspects. Meanwhile, a 2018 security audit already identified the used balcony as a major vulnerability point. The stolen jewels, valued at an estimated 88 million euros, remain unrecovered.
Dutch prosecutors unveiled a 2,500-year-old golden Helmet of Cotofenesti on Thursday, recovered more than a year after its theft from the Drents Museum. The artefact, along with two of three stolen Dacian gold bracelets, was displayed flanked by police officers. The third bracelet remains missing.
