A police officer suspected of shoplifting The arrest of a Kyoto police officer was a fifth person December 9th 13:03

In July, it was found through interviews with investigators that the Assistant Police Department of the Kyoto Police Headquarters was arrested on the 9th for shoplifting daily necessities in Wakayama City. It is the fifth time that a police officer of Kyoto Prefectural Police has been arrested.

According to the investigator, the arrest was the assistant police department Yoshiho Fujita of the Kyoto Prefectural Police Department, and in July, at two convenience stores in Wakayama City, supplements and razor blades were set for approximately 8000 yen. There is a suspicion of theft as shoplifting.

The number of items in stock did not match, so when the clerk checked the security camera, a shoplifting man was shown.

As a result of the Wakayama Prefectural Police's investigations based on images, on the morning of the 9th, the Fujita Police Department was arrested and moved to the police station in Wakayama City for further investigation.

In the Kyoto Prefectural Police, in the past six months, only four people have been announced, including fraud cases where they have scammed cash from elderly people they met in special fraud investigations, and bribery cases in which investigation information was leaked and cash was received. Police officers have been arrested and scandals continue.
