YOKOHAMA (Kyodo) A 77-year-old woman was identified Wednesday as the rightful owner of 2 million yen in cash that was found hidden inside a kimono sash given to a recycling group in September, after 17 others had falsely claimed it was theirs, police said.
The woman gave away a number of kimono to the recycling group in Yokohama, forgetting the money was hidden inside the obi of one of them, police said.
I kinda like this part...
They said 17 other people also claimed the money after learning of its discovery.
