Police investigating the raid at the museum said the man had been arrested on suspicion of money laundering.

He is currently in custody at Thorpe Wood Police Station.

Chinese art thought to be worth in excess of £18m was taken from the museum and a 28-year-old man and 15-year-old boy were arrested.
