73歳の女が48歳の架空の妹に成りすまして、保険証をだまし取った容疑で逮捕された。

A 73-year-old woman was arrested on suspicion of defrauding her insurance card by pretending to be her fictitious younger sister.
She claims that she did this because she was called an old hag and wanted to appear younger.
Her scam involved petitioning a district court to create a family registration for her, which she then used to obtain an insurance card.
The image of her arrest was aired on TV, but it was difficult to recognize that she was 73 years old.
While it may be difficult to believe that she is 48 years old, it is certainly true that she looks much younger, as shown in the picture below.
In Japan, age is considered important.
While we understand how she feels, we should not resort to fraudulent activities.

73歳の女が48歳の架空の妹に成りすまして、保険証をだまし取った容疑で逮捕された。
「ばばあと言われたので若くなりたい」からやったと供述している。
手口は、無戸籍と言って裁判所に新しい戸籍を作ってもらったのだ。
逮捕の映像が出ていたが、とても73歳には見えなった。
48歳はちょっと無理があるかも知れないが、若く見えることには間違いない。
日本は年齢を重視する社会だ。
彼女の気持ちは良く分かるが、やはり悪いことをやってはいけない。
昔から年上の人を。
