A woman was dropped from a bridge into a river and two men and women were accused of murder-robbery Gunma September 17, 18:19

Two men and women were accused of murder-robbery for robbing a woman's cash card and dropping it from a bridge and killing her in a case where a woman's body was found in a river in Nakanojo Town, Gunma Prefecture.

According to investigators, the accused woman wrote a keyword such as "briquettes" on Twitter to recruit suicide applicants, and the woman met accordingly.

The indicted were an office worker with an unspecified address, Osamu Kobune (34), and an unemployed employee in Kuki City, Saitama Prefecture, Yuko Yamamoto (30).



According to the complaint, the two men hit the head of a 48-year-old unemployed woman with a bat in Nakanojo Town, Gunma Prefecture on the 1st of last month, and then dropped it from the bridge into the river to kill him and robbed him of his cash card and driver's license. He is accused of robbery and murder.



The prosecution has not disclosed the approval or disapproval of the two.



According to investigators, Yamamoto wrote keywords such as "briquettes" and "sleeping pills" on Twitter to recruit suicide applicants, and the women met accordingly.



On the other hand, Mr. Kobune made a statement to the effect that he was "instructed" in response to the investigation so far, and as a result of the police analyzing the mobile phone, Mr. Yamamoto became a fictitious instructor on SNS. It turned out that he was spoofing and seemingly sending a message.
