Print Edition
POLICE found over 5,000 yuan (US$799) cash in a beggar’s bag when she was caught trying to evade fare at Metro Line 3’s Shilong Road Station.
The woman, in her 20s, entered the station without a ticket on January 25 when she was stopped by Metro staff and asked to pay 84 yuan fine for evading fare.
During the procedure, Metro police found a black bag that she hung on to very tightly drawing suspicion.
They ordered the woman to open the bag, and found 5,000 yuan cash in notes and coins.
The woman confessed that she had been begging along lines 3 and 4 with her mother.
The money was her “earning” of the past few days, she said.
Metro operator Shentong Group has urged commuters not to give money to beggars who disturb public order in the subways. It said beggars will be told to leave the station or fined 50 yuan.
