CNN —Former Hungarian fencer László Csongrádi has been left so distraught by the theft of his Olympic gold medal that he has offered to leave it to the thief in his will if it is returned.
Csongrádi, 65, won the Olympic gold in the men’s team sabre competition at the 1988 Summer Olympics in Seoul.
“For two weeks, I can’t calm down and be happy because everything reminds me of my stolen Olympic gold medal,” Csongrádi told Hungary’s Sportal website.
“He could have taken other important things, but for some reason (the medal) was all he was interested in,” he added.
“The thief touched many things, many fingerprints were left behind, but there is nothing to identify them.
