Two Van Goghs recovered from Camorra (3)

(ANSA) - Naples, September 30 - Two priceless Van Goghs stolen from Amsterdam's Van Gogh Museum in December 2002 were among the assets recovered from a drug-trafficking clan in the Neapolitan Camorra mafia Friday. Some of the gang who stole the Van Goghs and other paintings were nabbed a year later but the haul was never found. Assets worth tens of millions of euros were seized from the Camorra group. Premier Matteo Renzi congratulated Italian police on the operation and spoke about the paintings' recovery with Dutch Premier Mark Rutte as they both attended the funeral Friday of Israeli statesman Shimon Peres.
