"Artist" and butcher sentenced to prison after an artful scam worth millions

An artist and a butcher - a seemingly unlikely duo came together in what they thought was a brilliant plan. Paintings produced were valued at 2 billion zlotys and then attempts were made to collect 160 million zlotys in VAT returns. The so-called artist will now serve 5 years in prison, while his accomplice, the butcher will serve 4.
