Going by precedents, China can bring the statue back, as long as it can come up with substantial evidence. It won two similar lawsuits in 2001 and 2008.

-- Xie Caifeng, legal researcher with the Shunyi District People’s court in Beijing.

The statues look alike and both have marks on the hands and the stomach. The words written on the exhibited statue's cushion are the same as those on the lost statue.

-- Chen Qizhong, director of the Datian County Museum in Fujian province

Based on photos, local archives and witness statements, the State Administration of Cultural Heritage (SACH) can confirm that this Buddha statue was stolen from the Fujian village.

-- Jin Ruiguo, an SACH official

These artifacts should return to their origin. They should be viewed in their country of origin because they are part of the identity of the culture.

Gene (China)

Not all artifacts should be returned to source countries. More people can learn about and appreciate the artifacts if they are spread out in museums throughout the world.

Brigid (UK)

If the country of origin can't afford to keep it in good condition they should just probably just leave it in the other country's museum.
