UMVUE of the parameter of a double exponential density

Let X1,…,XnX_1,…,X_n (n>2n>2) be a random sample from a population with probability density function

f(x∣θ)=θ2e−θ∣x∣,−∞<x<∞,θ>0.f(x|\theta)=\frac\theta2e^{-\theta|x|},\quad-\infty<x<\infty, \theta>0.

Then a uniformly minimum variance unbiased estimator of θ\theta is
