A 50-year-old suspect who was arrested in a case in which a 55-year-old man was murdered in a house in Chigasaki City, Kanagawa Prefecture, was on trial for failing to pay the rent of an apartment in Osaka City owned by the man. I learned this from interviews with people involved.
Police are investigating the possibility that the suspect may have been dissatisfied with the trial.
On the 20th of this month, at a house in Nakakaigan, Chigasaki City, a company employee, Hiroyuki Shikata (55), was stabbed to death by a man who visited him with something like a knife. Yasuhiro (50) was arrested on suspicion of murder and was sent to the public prosecutor's office on the 24th.
In response to the investigation, he said, "There is no doubt," and admitted to the charges.
Mr. Shikata ran a real estate-related company, but according to people involved, Takai was living in an apartment in Osaka owned by Mr. Shikata.
Also, regarding this apartment, the suspect had been in a civil trial for several years of rent arrears, so the police suspected that the suspect may have been dissatisfied with the trial, etc., and investigated the motive in detail. I'm here.
