Precious paintings by Pablo Picasso, Andy Warhol and Marc Chagall and designer furniture confiscated.
The paintings were confiscated in connection with the police raiding a suspected drug smuggler in December last year.
In addition to the precious art, the police also seized jewelery, cars and designer furniture during the raid. Some of the valuable design furniture has already been linked to burglary in the Stockholm area. In addition to the arrest in Helsingborg, raids were also carried out in southern Spain.
– We will now investigate whether the paintings have been stolen, says Christer Nilsson, head of the investigation unit at the Police’s national operational department to Kulturnytt.
