The Norwegian Supreme Court on Friday increased the sentences of two men convicted of stealing two masterworks by Edvard Munch, âThe Screamâ and âMadonna,â right, and ordered a new trial for a third convicted man, The Associated Press reported. The paintings were stolen in August 2004 in a daylight raid on the Munch Museum in Oslo. They were recovered by police nearly two years later, and are undergoing repairs for scrapes, punctures, loose paint and moisture damage. Last month the three men appealed their 2006 sentences. In answer, Norwayâs highest court unanimously ruled that the prison terms for two of the men, Petter Tharaldsen and Stian Skjold, were not long enough, considering the âirreplaceable national cultural valueâ of the paintings. The court increased Mr. Tharaldsenâs sentence by one year, to 10 Â½ years, and Mr. Skjoldâs sentence by six months, to six years. The court did reject the conviction of a third man, Bjoern Hoen, saying that testimony in his trial may have been tainted, and sent his case back for a new trial.
