Grand Theft Moai

Not everyone is as respectful of the historical artifacts as the archeologists. A Finnish tourist somehow managed to cut off an ear of one of the Moai and ran away. Someone on the island saw this man, Marko Kulju and immediately reported him to the police. Kulju was consequently arrested and fined with $17,000 USD. The man could have been charged with 7 years in prison too. Post this incident the security at the national park was made stricter.
