Default Junkers 88 in New Zealand?

Can anyone provide any information on a Finnish JU-88 which was
supposedly recovered from an unkown lake some 100 km south of
Leningrad (these days St Petersburg)in Russia in the 90's and now
resides somewhere in New Zealand?
The plane apparently ditched in late 1944.

Any info greatly appreciated.

Thanks very much,
Ian

this be a corruption of the story of the Finnish Brewster 239 serialed BW
372 that was recovered from Russia in the late 90's and now resides in storage
in Ireland? Can you give a source for the Ju 88 story?
