Six tractors, stolen from Kent, Hampshire, Sussex and Berkshire were seized by Polish authorities near Radom in the north of the country.
The operation was a joint initiative with Kent police’s Serious Organised Crime Unit, which confirmed two men had been arrested and prosecuted in connection with the thefts.
