According to the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department, he told the investigation that "the body was a former husband and he could not afford the funeral expenses because he had no money."
As a result of the investigation, the Tokyo District Public Prosecutor's Office has dismissed the woman by the 15th.
The prosecution has not disclosed the reason for the disposition.
