A 117-year-old Japanese lady, thought to be the world's most established individual, has kicked the bucket, a neighborhood official disclosed to AFP Sunday.

Tajima, who turned into the most seasoned lady in Japan in September 2015, could have been the most seasoned individual on the planet since Violet Brown of Jamaica kicked the bucket in September 2017 at age 117, Japanese media said.
Since Brown's passing, Guinness World Records has been researching who is the most seasoned individual on the planet and was yet to perceive Tajima in that capacity.

"Ms Tajima was inhabiting a nursing place for the elderly. In January, she wound up weaker, so she was taken to a nearby doctor's facility," Yoshiyuki told AFP.
"She passed on there (Saturday) because of her propelled age," he said.
