An Austrian 85-year-old cut up into tiny pieces almost a million euros ($1.1 million) in an apparent attempt to spite her heirs, authorities said Thursday.
据报道，上周四，奥地利一位85岁老人将近100万欧元（合700多万人民币）剪碎。这显然是为了报复她的继承人。
After the woman died in a retirement1 home, the 950,000 euros as well as savings2 accounts books were found shredded3 on her bed, prosecutors5 said.
State prosecutor4 Erich Habitzl confirmed the discovery -- first reported in the Kurier daily -- but said that there was nothing he could do for the relatives.
"The damage of the money in the woman's property is not a criminal matter, so we have not begun any investigation," Habitzl told AFP.
Kurier reported however that the woman's surviving family will have the last laugh, with Austria's central bank (OeNB) saying it will replace all the cash.
"If the heirs can only find shreds6 of money and if the origin of the money is assured, then of course it can all be replaced," Friedrich Hammerschmidt, deputy head of the OeNB cashier division, told Kurier.
"If we didn't pay out the money then we would be punishing the wrong people."
