Suspicion of attempted robbery at "Apoden" destination Three arrested Recruitment at dark site or January 22 21:01
Three men were arrested for trying to steal cash by invading a house in Tokyo where Apo Den was running to see if there was cash at home. The three were gathered through a so-called "dark site" and instructed to rob.
Three persons were arrested, including Shintaro Nakano, a company employee in Nisshin City, Aichi Prefecture.
According to the Metropolitan Police Department, the three intruded into a house in Higashi-Kurume-shi, Tokyo in November last year, and were suspected of attempted robbery in an attempt to steal cash from a 67-year-old man living in this house.
It is said that the three fled from the scene without taking anything, but this house had an "APO" to check if there was cash in advance.
During the first meeting, the three people were gathered in response to a call for a "dark site" on the Internet for the purpose of a reward, and were instructed by another person through the net to meet at JR Shinagawa Station and to rob the house at the site about it.
According to the investigation, Nakano admitted that he was "for debt repayment".
The Metropolitan Police Department is investigating that there has been a suspicion that a group that has used "Apo Den" has committed a crime by recruiting a robber at the "Dark Site".
