Default Porsche is suing TechArt for stealing engines

Story here in German.
http://forums.finalgear.com/showthread.php?t=19445

summary by D-fence:
3 Engine prototypes have been stolen out of Porsches development center, 2 conventional engines and one "engine of the future". The parts have been found in the Techart garage. four people are in jail, two leasing-managers of porsche, and two customers. Porsche now sues Techart for theft, Techart says they bought the stuff with a bill and thought everything was ok, but found out, that the engine wasn´t the promised 997 Turbo engine, but something else (they were fascinated), so they gave it back to the dealer, and it was found there. If it´s true, Techart will be out of the buisness, because Porsche never delivers parts to someone who did something "strange" with them....

Right now, the only facts are, the engines disappeared, popped up at Techart......that´s it.
