Workers set to keep 95,000 euros found in Geneva toilets

GENEVA: Geneva justice has turned to the old adage “finders-keepers” to resolve one of the odder cases to hit the Swiss city in recent years.

Staff at a cafe and two restaurants found more than 95,000 euros in high-denomination notes in May and June of last year after the owners of the funds tried to dispose of the cash in the toilets. The workers will be able to apply to keep the money after prosecutors closed the case, a spokesman for the Geneva Prosecutor’s office confirmed.
