Hiroko Was on Vacation in Cairo

Hiroko was on vacation in Cairo. Egypt has a law that says it is illegal to purchase antiquities with the intent to remove them from the country. The penalty is punishable by imprisonment for a period up to 50 years. Hiroko purchased a small statue from a street vendor. Unknown to Hiroko, the statue was actually 2000 years old and was stolen from an archaeological site. The local authorities discovered that Hirko purchased the statute and arrested her. After a trial, Hiroko was convicted but was given a lenient sentence in the form of a $1000 fine due to the mitigating circumstances. Immediately after she paid the fine, she returned to Australia. On her return, her friend offered her a director position with his company. Even though she has not been convicted of any offence in Australia, she is nonetheless disqualified form managing a corporation in Australia.
