Stolen Works From Topkapi Palace Found In Mosque


 

 

www.zaman.com Historic works stolen from the Topkapi Palace in June were found in a mosque’s yard in the Fatih neighborhood of Istanbul.

Turkish citizens gathering at the Husam Bey Mosque for morning-prayer found two unclaimed suitcases in the yard and called police. After a short investigation, the squad was able to identify the historical artifacts.

The Topkapi Palace Directorate was informed about the issue. Experts, upon the request of the police to inspect the works, recorded eight pieces belonging to the Bagdat Kiosk and a historic shawl from Topkapi Palace.

A note from the thieves, “We were not relieved when we stole these works of art, so we ask to replace them” left authorities shocked.

The thieves had entered Topkapi Palace on 27 June 2005 by breaking the window, and stole eight historic works. The robbery in the palace, one of the world’s best protected museums, brought the security weaknesses to the agenda.
