A prominent Berlin art dealer was arrested in Germany on suspicion of fraud connected to the sale of high-value art works. Police also raided 7 locations in Berlin and Brandenburg related to the investigation.

No details on who the dealer is, though.

A local radio stationed reported that the dealer is prominent, has international subsidiaries, and exhibited paintings by artists such as Gerhard Richter and Georg Baselitz.

Sounds like he may have been taking money for art works, but then not delivering them.
Did some digging in German news and found the art dealer is Michael Schultz. Ahh, he's accused of selling art with counterfeit certificates of authenticity.
