The Pink Panthers are an infamous international jewel thief network originating from the Balkans, mainly Serbia, Montenegro, Bosnia, and Croatia. Known for their daring, fast-paced, and highly coordinated heists, they have stolen over $500 million in luxury jewelry across more than 35 countries. Their operations often involve precise planning, disguises, and high-speed getaways, including crashing cars into storefronts to grab valuables in seconds. Many members are believed to be former soldiers from the Yugoslav wars, giving them military skills that make them extremely effective and elusive. Despite numerous arrests, the network remains active and one of the most notorious criminal groups in the world.
