A 47-year-old suspect, who had been wanted for deceiving a state-provided "sustainability benefit," was arrested in Indonesia, and a group of suspects cheated on the holder of the lie application. According to an interview with an investigative official, it was found that there was a suspicion that he was instructing an example of the answer when there was an inquiry from the country on SNS so that it would not be discovered.

Mitsuhiro Taniguchi (47), whose address and occupation are unknown, was wanted nationwide for deceiving the national sustainability benefits by applying for a lie that business income was significantly reduced due to the influence of the new coronavirus. This month, I was arrested by local police in Indonesia on suspicion of illegal immigration.



It is believed that a group of four members from all over the country gathered holders all over the country and applied for lies under the guise of a sole proprietor, but the group inquired the holders from the government so that fraud would not be discovered. According to an interview with an investigative official, it was found that there was a suspicion that he was instructing an example of the answer when there was a problem.



Through SNS, he was instructed to answer "yes" when asked if he had filed his tax return, and to answer that his home is an office so that he would not be asked in detail about the office.



On the other hand, it is known that the group submitted documents with almost the same contents except for the personal information of the holder, and it is believed that this led to the discovery of fraud.



The Metropolitan Police Department plans to proceed with the procedure for transferring Taniguchi to Japan and arrest him on suspicion of fraud in the future.

Did you try to set up a living base in Indonesia?

When I interviewed Mitsuhiro Taniguchi in Indonesia, I found out that my eldest son had visited the capital Jakarta for several years and was trying to establish a base for living.



Taniguchi departed for Indonesia in October, but the Indonesian government issued a residence permit for Taniguchi in 2019, the year before.



When NHK confirmed with the apartment manager about the apartment near the capital Jakarta that was stated in the residence permit, it was newly found that it was contracted in the name of the eldest son's big prayer suspect who was arrested in Japan. ..



The contract was signed from 2019 to 2020, and the suspect was present at the time of moving in.



At that time, the business card that seems to have been used as a document to confirm the identity had the title as a director of an Indonesian company that said that it would develop resources and energy.



His rent was paid in the name of Taniguchi.



On the other hand, regarding the fish farming business such as catfish that Taniguchi was promoting locally, according to several residents, Taniguchi rented land to build a fishpond in Padang on Sumatra Island, and the Japanese yen was given to the locals. Then, we pay about 18,000 yen a month to raise fish, and there are more than 60 aquaculture ponds in total.



A local man who temporarily considered joining Taniguchi's business said, "Taniguchi was friendly and interacted with the locals. It seemed like a reliable company." I did.
