German police arrest Briton over rhino horn theft

He was held pending extradition, but police noticed a resemblance to sketches
of the suspected rhino horn thieves and further investigation led to the
arrest, he said.

The other Britons are still awaiting extradition but inquiries against them
are continuing, he added.

Similar thefts have occurred throughout Europe, with some museums taking the
unusual step of replacing their rhino horns with fake ones to deter
robberies.

Rhino horns can fetch between 25,000 and 200,000 euros depending on their size.
