A fake plastic penis, used by Argentinian footballer Diego Maradona to pass drug tests, has disappeared on a tour of the country. A museum in Buenos Aires had been given it for its historical significance.
Maradona used to fill the fake manhood with other peoples clean urine and then would pretend to provide a genuine sample when being tested. The player had a history of failed drugs tests, notably in Italy in 1991 and the World Cup of 1994.
Police said "It's quite an unusual theft but I suppose it is valuable because of its former owner. We're confident we can sniff it out".
