Just a few we...Fascinating comment by Charles Hill. Just a few weeks before Mang was apprehended Mr. Hill most convincingly stated that a Serb gang was behind this theft. The guard did NOT switch off the alarm but did reset it. Resetting takes about one minute, and the idea was - because of the numerous false alarms - that should the alarm return after resetting something really might be wrong. The burglary and theft however took just 56 seconds, so after resetting the alarm did not sound again. Immediately after this burglary, and theft I pleaded that the director of the Kunsthistorische Museum ought to be fired because of negligence. It was outrageous that the museum's € 30 million highlight could be stolen that easily. Hill protested that I went after the director. The director left the museum one year later. The same is happening now after the burglary and theft in the Kunsthal, Rotterdam, The Netherlands. The burglary, and theft of seven paintings, value about € 100 million, took just two minutes, but the director of the Kunsthal claims that the security is 'state of the art'. Another incompetent director who should leave this position ASAP.Museum Security Networkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07341083454446594568noreply@blogger.com
