Romanian anti-corruption prosecutors seized paintings, including some pieces signed by Pablo Picasso and Andy Warhol, from former Finance Minister Darius Valcov as part of a bribery probe.

Prosecutors found 101 paintings allegedly hidden by Valcov in different houses in Bucharest and the southern town of Slatina, which have been submitted for authentication, prosecutors said in a statement on their website. The seized paintings include three Picasso works and others signed by renowned Romanian artists Nicolae Tonitza and Stefan Luchian.
