Dec 17 (Japan Times) - A man in his 20s from Osaka Prefecture is likely to be referred to prosecutors soon for alleged abuse of Hana Kimura, a now-deceased former cast member on the popular reality TV show “Terrace House,” investigative sources said Wednesday.
The man is suspected by Tokyo Metropolitan Police of having defamed Kimura on Twitter several times, making comments anonymously such as “Is there any point in you living?” and “Hey, when are you going to die?” in response to her posts.
Kimura, a 22-year-old professional wrestler, was found dead at her apartment in Tokyo in May in a suspected suicide after becoming the target of abusive posts on social media.
