Police in east Slovakia's Košice arrested four men and issued warrants for several others in what they have billed the largest auto-theft ring in Slovak history, involving 34 trucks and 50 cars discovered so far on the premises of the Prof-Car firm.
Local police from the traffic inspectorate are also believed to have worked for the gang.
