Police searching in a villa in a wealthy German
suburb have found a Second World War tank,
a torpedo and other illegal weaponry in the
basement.
The police found the huge wartime haul in the
town of Heikendorf, a suburb of Kiel. The
search was ordered by Kiel prosecutors, who
suspected that the owner's collection was
breaking a law which controls the possession
of weapons of war.
The Kiel officials were tipped off by Berlin
prosecutors, who had searched the villa a
month earlier for stolen Nazi art, The Local
reported.
Along with the 1943 Panther tank, a torpedo
and assorted other weaponry not specified by
the police was found.

The hoard was found on Wednesday, but by
Thursday, police were still working to remove
the 45 tonne, 22 foot tank from the property,
using another tank designed to haul disabled
tanks off the battlefield.
The Suddeutsche Zeitung reported that the
villa owner's lawyer claimed that the tank
could no longer fire its weapons and thus was
not breaking any law.
The Zeitung also spoke to the mayor of the
small suburb of Heikendorf, Alexander Orth,
who was not surprised by the discovery of
military hardware.

"He was chugging around in that thing during
the snow catastrophe in 1978", the mayor
said.
As well as laws against owning weapons of
war, it is illegal to collect or trade in Nazi
memorabilia in Germany unless it is for
scholarly or museum purposes. However, there
is no evidence that the man has broken this
law.
