TOKYO, Jan 14: A 54-year-old Japanese man was caught impersonating his 20-year-old son to take an exam, even getting a perm to make himself look younger, an official said on Wednesday.
The father, who runs a medication distribution company, sat a test for a license to handle over-the-counter drugs so that his son could work with him, said an official in Nara prefecture in western Japan.
An examiner noticed that the man looked unusually old, said local government official Masaaki Nakamori.
“A 20-year-old and a 54-year-old are aged differently. But he looked like the photo on the exam admission card,” Nakamori said.—AFP
