Larry Williams Drive

A good day for one of our top cops. A pair of Gottfried Lindauer portraits have been recovered through an intermediary five years after being stolen from Parnell's International Art Centre. They were jointly priced at about $1 million dollars in 2017. Detective Inspector Scott Beard has overseen prominent criminal cases like the Grace Millane homicide investigation and says this is a rare happy result. "There's always public weight behind us, but to actually get the paintings back and be able to return them to the rightful owner, it was a very proud moment for New Zealand Police."
