The Metropolitan Police Department is examining the details of the statement, stating that he wanted to live together for a little longer.

The arrested was Mr. Toda (54), whose occupation was unknown in Kurihara, Adachi-ku.

According to the Metropolitan Police Department, there is a suspicion of leaving a body that seems to have lived with a mother in a home apartment for more than a year. He visited the police station 30 days ago and said that he was still living with his deceased mother.

The body was found in a bag in a bed in the bedroom, with no noticeable trauma. In response to the investigation, he said, "My mother died at home last January. I thought I would live together for a little longer, but I was mentally tired."

She lives with her mother, and if she lives, she is 80 years old. The Metropolitan Police Department is confirming the identity of the body and examining the details.
