A 10-month-old girl died A nursery school staff member who reported to the city "I am disappointed" June 9 18:47

This January, in an apartment in Ichihara, Chiba prefecture, a mother was arrested for abandoning a weakened 10-month-old girl, and before the girl died, she said she was "suspicious of abandoning her childcare". A nursery school staff member with whom I was in contact said in response to an interview with NHK that he said, "I contacted the company because I thought the city would respond immediately.

Risa Konishi (23), whose address is undecided and unemployed, died 10 January after birth in January this year. I was arrested on suspicion.

One of the siblings who attended the NHK interview was a nursery school man from a nursery school.

According to the man, the mother has a decent personality and always contacts the siblings until she gives birth to a girl. However, in December of last year, he felt that his mother had a strange appearance, so he consulted at the nursery school and called the department in charge of abuse in Ichihara twice to tell him that he was suspicious of giving up childcare.

The man said, "Since my siblings have taken a lot of holidays, I can't bring the girl to the pick-up when I go to the park. My mother also seems very tired, so I contacted her."

However, it was about one month later that the staff of the department in charge of abuse visited their homes, and on January 23, two days later, the girl died without being able to see her.

The man said, "I thought that the city would respond immediately, but I was sorry to wonder why this happened. I made it clear to the city to prevent such an event from happening again. I want you to."

Regarding this, a person in charge of Ichihara City said on the 9th, according to the interview of the press, "I can not answer because there is a confidentiality obligation if the nursery school has provided information," and "if there is information provided, judgment of urgency etc. We responded appropriately."

In addition, "the city must thoroughly verify how it responded to the contact from the nursery school and whether it was appropriate. Otherwise, it is reluctant to prevent child abuse. And that attitude is doubtful.”
