British schoolboys caught stealing items from Auschwitz fined £400

Two British schoolboys who were caught stealing buttons and pieces of metal and glass from Auschwitz have been fined £400.

Marcus Dell and Ben Thompson, who are both from Hertfordshire, were ordered to pay the fine, along with a further £1,250 each to be donated to the Memorial Foundation for the victims of Auschwitz-Birkenau.

The pair, who were 17 at the time of the offence, were caught stealing the items from the infamous Nazi death camp during a visit with the prestigious Perse School in 2015.
