TAS Time Limitation on making a fraudulent insurance claim

[Bazarus]

Someone I know made an insurance claim over a break and enter where some of his possessions were stolen
The insurer either partially paid out or didn't pay out as they thought something was amiss (valuable easy to lift stuff was left behind). He forgot to mention to them that his entire indoor crop had been stolen)
It occurred in early 2003
Could he be in any trouble with the insurer or police if they were tipped off?

interested in the story,
well, I think its dependence upon the evidence the person has.

There are no limitations on criminal offences, although it is difficult to gather evidence to longer the timeframe from the incident. The insurer could just get restitution if he was convicted, so again limitation act isn’t relevant.
