Couple flees with sh1,365b
NEW ZEALAND-Police are searching for a couple who fled with millions of dollars after sh1,365b was accidentally deposited on their bank account. The couple, who operated a fuel station, had applied to Westpac Bank for a NZ$10,000 overdraft but the bank deposited 1,000 times that amount in error. As soon as they got it, they left the country. They are suspected to be in China. It is criminal to spend money accidentally put on your bank account.
Stolen kiss not an offence
TURKEY-Court has ordered an employer to reinstate a woman who was fired after she kissed her boyfriend at work, ruling it was just a stolen kiss and that no customers saw it. The woman was sacked after her boss caught her kissing on tape on the business’ closed circuit TV. She appealed to court which annulled the dismissal. Turkey is slowly becoming more socially accommodative.
President love on facebook
FRANCE-President Nicolas Sarkozy has revamped his Facebook page with home videos of him flirting and discussing world politics with his wife, Carla. Sarkozy’s marriage to the model-turned-singer continues to keep the gossip columnists busy. But his new Facebook site presents a more domestic feel, with Carla talking about her husband’s busy life in admiring tones. Sarkozy then bursts into the room and kisses his wife, who affectionately strokes his hands and arms for the remainder of the video.
