The French police are happy that the wallet they have is indeed Kin Mun's. They even sent a picture of it. Then the whole exercise gets handed over to a private company who organises the logistics of getting it back to us - for a not-insigificant fee, of course.
It made my cynical self think - follow the money!!! Private enterprise is making money out of petty crime. No wonder there is little motivation to stamp it out.
The finder was reported as La Poste. Not sure if this means someone tossed it in a post-box, or just posted it to the police.
At least this was quicker than the several years it took to get his wallet lost in Spain back - which went through the Aus embassy in Madrid.
