In a bizarre turn of events reminiscent of a spy thriller, New Zealand police have successfully recovered a stolen Fabergé pendant after waiting six days for it to exit a suspect’s gastrointestinal tract naturally. The pendant, inspired by the James Bond film “Octopussy,” was reportedly worth $19,000 and had been swallowed by a man attempting to steal it from a store in Auckland.
According to reports from ABC News, BBC, and South China Morning Post, the limited-edition Fabergé egg pendant was recovered on Thursday night without the need for medical intervention. The pendant, made of 18-karat yellow gold and studded with diamonds, was inspired by a jewel-smuggling operation involving a fake Fabergé egg in the 1983 James Bond film.
The suspect, whose identity has not been disclosed, allegedly swallowed the pendant in an attempt to conceal the theft. New Zealand police closely monitored the man for six days, waiting for the pendant to naturally pass through his system. The successful recovery of the pendant without any medical complications has garnered international attention and sparked discussions about the lengths people will go to for valuable items.
Social media users have been quick to react to the unusual incident, with many expressing disbelief and amusement at the audacity of the suspect. The story has captured the imagination of people around the world, drawing parallels to Hollywood heist movies and real-life crime dramas.
As the investigation into the theft and recovery of the Fabergé pendant continues, authorities are expected to provide more details about the incident and any charges that may be brought against the suspect. The case serves as a reminder of the lengths individuals may go to in pursuit of valuable items and the ingenuity of law enforcement in solving unusual crimes.
