A shocking case has come to light in Germany where a Rs 2.5 crore painting found at the airport was thrown in the trash by a cleaner.

The businessman was on his way to Israel with the painting. He forgot his precious painting at the airport. He remembered this after boarding the flight. The painting was packed in a box. After arriving in Israel, he sent a number of mails to get the painting back.

Although the staff at the airport tried to find the painting, they did not find it. His nephew also lodged a complaint with the police in this regard. The police also seriously investigated what happened and contacted the cleaning company at the airport. A painting was found in the trash.

When the police returned the painting worth about Rs 2.5 crore to the businessman, they were overjoyed. The garbage collector threw the painting in the trash and caused the painting to reach the garbage heaps collected at the airport.
