Oh my.

Theft of art and historical relics is a long running occupation. Hope they mete out stern punishments whenever they catch these people.

Reminds me of that controversy in Utah a couple years ago when a whole lot of people were indicted for trafficking in Native American artifacts. There was a quite a stir over it.
