Has He been indicted yet? Its already 2005.

This needs an update, it's August 7, 2007, so what happened to this guy?

As far as I know, he's totally guilty: http://www.bbc.co.uk/sn/tvradio/programmes/horizon/solomon_prog_summary.shtml When the police took Oded Golan into custody and searched his apartment they discovered a workshop with a range of tools, materials, and half finished 'antiquities'. This was evidence for an operation of a scale far greater than they had suspected.

Investigators have established that collectors around the world have paid hundreds of thousands of dollars for artefacts that came through Oded Golan's associates. Dozens of these items have now been examined by Dr Goren, and all have been revealed to be forgeries. Police now suspect that artefacts made by the same team of forgers have found their way into leading museums around the world. Bar fly high (talk) 06:29, 17 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
