The priceless Romanian helmet stolen from a Dutch museum in January 2025 has been found and presented to the public at a packed press conference in Assen on Thursday. The helmet, which dates from 500 BC and is made of solid gold, was stolen from the Drents Museum on the night of January 24, 2025, alongside three gold armbands. Two of the armbands were also on display under heavy security at the museum on Thursday afternoon. Local public prosecution chief Corien Fahner said the items had been recovered following a plea bargain with the three suspects, who are due to appear in court later this month. “The key to finding them [the helmet and armbands] was with the three suspects,” she said. More details of the deal that has been struck with the suspects will be made public at the hearing on April 14, she said. https://lnkd.in/eY9sYy2F
