Art thief provides proof that a Ministry of Magic Hit Wizard has smuggled several items in and out of England.
As the trial of TRENTON BAMBAR continues more and more is coming to light of the exploits of the dynamic art thief duo ELLE SPINNET and Bambar. According to Bambar, GARRICK SUMMERBY has been instrumental in helping them move some of the pieces they've stolen over the years. He's provided proof that the Hit Wizard assisted in moving Etruscan artefacts stolen from the Musei di Fiesole. It is reported that Spinnet and Bambar were at the time of the heist visiting Spinnet's grandparents not far away.
The reports from Italy are not the only allegations against the Hit Wizard. There is suspicion that he's helped move exotic animals, rare potion ingredients and more.
Bambar has provided circumstantial evidence which has been confirmed by the Auror department. Summerby was picked up by Slovenian Aurors while on assignment there and is being transferred back to the British Ministry of Magic. He has thus far refused to speak until he knows all the charges against him. Summerby did not resist arrest although it did appear that he was getting ready to run as a bag was packed in his accommodations.
The Art Thief Duos movements over the past few years have led to several more inquiries about heists taking place all over the world. While Bambar believes giving up Summerby will lead to a lighter sentence that is unlikely.
"There is a lot to this case, and I can't comment on the ongoing investigation into Garrick Summerby." Perry Derrick told reporters before pushing past them in front of the Ministry this morning.
The courts have dropped the claim that ALICIA SPINNET is responsible for the death of Elle Spinnet, but Bambar has insisted he will keep pushing for the Puddlemere Chaser to be held accountable for the death. The Spinnet family has held a funeral for the eldest Spinnet daughter; however, Alicia Spinnet was not in attendance or invited.
