'Rathkeale Rovers' gang members jailed over multi-million euro rhino horn spree
Alexander Britton
Members of an Irish organised crime gang have been jailed for up to six years and eight months, after plotting to steal up to €70m in rhino horn and Chinese artefacts in a series of museum raids.
The group, dubbed the Rathkeale Rovers because of their links to the Co Limerick town, targeted high-value objects in a string of break-ins in the UK, including at Cambridge's Fitzwilliam Museum and Durham's Oriental Museum in 2012.
