#2, it's called תקנת השוק

Even a beis din would say Aguch has to pay for it, because halocho also has תקנת השוק. But Israeli law doesn’t have follow Choshen Mishpot, and it gives more importance to ensuring that good-faith buyers have security of title. Aguch’s only recourse is to find the original thief and sue them.

The legal opinion seems solid

The current seller bought these allegedly stolen goods in good faith last year, at a public auction to which the alleged victim made no objection. Therefore under Israel’s version of תקנת השוק the goods now belong to the good-faith purchaser. The time for Aguch to object was last year, but they didn’t hear about it and missed their chance.

(Halacha’s version preserves the original owner’s right to the goods, but requires him to compensate the good-faith purchaser.)

Chabad should just buy it

I feel bad for this guy, the Rebbe said that whom ever takes these stolen kisvei yad, is taking a bomb in to his hands.
So first of all it’s a chutzpah, second it’s scary
