The father's body left "I was afraid to be alone" 61-year-old son arrested August 26 17:00

A 61-year-old son was arrested by the Metropolitan Police Department on the assumption that a 91-year-old father was left at home in Adachi-ku, Tokyo for about a month. The son is said to have been in a state of withdrawal for many years and states that he was afraid of being suddenly alone.

Arrested by Nobuyuki Takeda (61), unemployed in Adachi-ku, Tokyo.

According to the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department, there is a suspicion that the body, which appears to be a 91-year-old father who lives with his home in an apartment house in Takenotsuka, Adachi-ku, has been left unattended from last month to 24th.

On the 24th, a police officer rushed through a contact from a neighbor who noticed a strange odor and discovered it.

Takeda is believed to have been withdrawn for many years because he had not worked for about 30 years and lived in his father's pension.

He accused the investigation and stated that he had been with his father so far and was afraid of suddenly becoming one and did not contact him about his death.

The Metropolitan Police Department has decided to investigate the details.
