Six Years After Museum Heist, Missing Picasso Possibly Found In Romania

Thieves entered the Netherlands’ Kunsthal in 2012 and made off with seven paintings, allegedly later burned in an oven by the ringleader’s mother.

Now the story has taken another strange turn.

“[Prosecutors] said two Dutch citizens arrived at the Netherlands Embassy in Bucharest with the painting, saying they had found it in the southeastern Romanian county” of Tulcea, Reuters reports.
