Insurance loss adjustors have put up a big reward for the recovery of Chinese artefacts worth £15 million stolen from the Fitzwilliam Museum in Cambridge.

Three men and a sixteen year old boy have been sentenced for stealing the 18 mainly jade items dating from the Ming and Qing dynasties.

None of the haul has been recovered. The gang smashed their way into the museum on April 13th. The exact amount of the reward hasn't been revealed.
