"A German man has been arrested at Athens International Airport after allegedly trying to smuggle nearly half a ton of gold and silver out of Greece, according to airport officials. The suspect was preparing to board a Lufthansa flight for Germany. The airline uncovered silver tablets in a cargo container and customs officials then found gold and banknotes. This follows claims by Greece that Germany still owes it war reparations stemming from the Nazi occupation. The BBC's Mark Lowen in Athens says the timing of the arrest is unfortunate for German-Greek relations."
