Federal agents have seized a 64-carat diamond that was stolen at Kennedy Airport and sold for $1 million to a Fifth Avenue jeweler. The rock is valued at approximately $3.3 million according to Brooklyn Federal Court records. The jewel was transported to the city last September by diamond dealer Dennis Van Kerrebroeck, who had an agreement to purchase it from a South African mining company. After U.S. Customs and Border Protection officers had the diamond in custody Van Kerrebroeck contacted a customs broker and arranged clearance for the diamond without the mining company’s consent. Van Kerrebroeck then sold the diamond to Taly Diamond where it was seized last Thursday. Law enforcement is now trying to locate Van Kerrebroeck.
