BTV News

A murder case that happened in Minato Ward, Tokyo is currently shocking the entirety of Japan. The victim is Kaneshiro Tsugumichi (24).

The fact that he is the president of Senkou Newspaper, Kaneshiro Isamu’s (68) only son, who was killed by the hands of a female university student (20), who is enrolled in a famous university in Tokyo has also become a topic of conversation.

At the press conference, Mr. Kaneshiro was in front of numerous cameras with tears in his eyes and criticized the barbarism of the female university student.

The judicial judgment regarding this case is legitimate self-defense.

According to the female university student, she claimed that she had no other choice but to kill the victim in order to stop the jostling between the two when she caught the victim, who was a child kidnapper, red-handed.

The female elementary school student who was at the scene also had the same testimony, and the defense argued that legitimate self-defense was established.

However, Mr. Kaneshiro claimed at the press conference that afterward, his personal investigation identified that the corpse had numerous remnants of bruises and wounds that concluded a more than necessary act of violence.

Furthermore, Mr. Kaneshiro announced that the female elementary school student who claimed to have been “saved by a female university student” has withdrawn her testimony.

He states that there is the possibility of the female elementary school student being threatened in some way, and there remains doubt about the claim of the female university student and the defense of the “child (kidnapper)” itself.
