Five paintings embargoed from the businessman Carlos Sánchez in the Marbella’s Malaya corruption case are to form part of the collection of the Málaga Municipal Museum.
They are amongst the most valuable of the paintings which were seized during the Malaya investigation, and include a Van Dyck and a Sorolla - ‘Portrait of William Cavendish’ and Sorolla’s ‘Antes de la corrida’ – ‘Before the bullfight’.
The remainder of the 400 works of art which were seized from a warehouse in Córdoba in November 2008 are to be returned to Carlos Sánchez. EFE indicates that the court has named him as the designated depositary for the entire collection, including the five paintings which will be in the custody of the Málaga museum.
It’s understood that he must pay for their transport to Málaga and for their insurance.
