What is the world coming to?

A report in the Daily Telegraph today tells of Hong Kong robbers who have stolen the ashes of three people from a local cemetery. They are demanding a reward of almost $9,000 for their safe return. A note was left demanding the money be deposited in a bank account. (Now, if they have the same laws in place for opening bank accounts in Hong Kong as they do here in Australia, they should be able to track down the perpetrators based on the bank account - but there was no indication of this in the article.)
