A Japanese ceremonial sword was among a trove of allegedly stolen goods recovered from a police raid on a Gungahlin home this week.
ACT Policing said that at about 10:40 pm on Tuesday, 2 January, officers from Gungahlin Police Station executed a search warrant at a residence in Gungahlin.
During the search, police recovered items suspected of being stolen, including a Japanese ceremonial sword, a PlayStation 5, jewellery and watches, tools, designer handbags, electronic devices, including mobile phones and tablets, and numerous stolen identity and bank cards.
Police said the items were believed to have been stolen from other residences and during other property crimes in Gungahlin across the Christmas/New Year period.
No arrests have been made, but investigations were ongoing and charges were expected.
Police believe that offenders entered homes via unlocked doors, and reminded the community to securely lock properties and vehicles, even when at home.
