A man arrested on suspicion of defamation of a missing girl's mother at a campsite October 15, 18:50
Last year, a 69-year-old man in Shizuoka Prefecture was arrested on suspicion of defamation for slandering the mother of an 8-year-old girl who went missing at a campsite in Doshi Village, Yamanashi Prefecture.
According to the police, they have denied the charges.
Yukio Nogami (69), a self-proclaimed investor in Atami City, Shizuoka Prefecture, was arrested.
Misaki Ogura (8), a second-year elementary school student in Narita City, Chiba Prefecture, lost her whereabouts at a campsite in Doshi Village, Yamanashi Prefecture, where she visited with her family last September, and no strong clue has been found even now.
Under these circumstances, the content that slandered Misaki's mother Tomoko (37), who is calling for information, was written on the Internet, and the police who consulted were investigating.
As a result, it was discovered that Nogami had posted on a blog he managed in February, and he was arrested on suspicion of defamation.
In response to the investigation, he denied the charges, saying, "I didn't mean to damage my honor."
On the other hand, apart from this case, another defendant was indicted and is being tried in the Chiba District Court in August for sending a message threatening his mother.
Police are calling for information about the missing Misaki.
