And finally... sign of the times

A man who found a wallet containing €2,000 (£1,770) in cash has refused a reward after returning it.

Mossan Rasal, 23, found the wallet lying in the street in Rome and took it directly to the police station.

Officers arranged for the owner to collect it.

Mr Rasal said that he “did not do anything exceptional,” adding: “That money wasn’t mine.”



“I didn’t know the amount because I didn’t count it, I just took everything to the [police] station,” he told Italian newspaper La Repubblica.

“It was about being honest, as my family taught me to be,” he added.
