Nov 11 (tokyoreporter.com) - Kanagawa Prefectural Police have arrested a school vice principal for allegedly smearing his own bodily fluid on a girl inside a train, reports Jiji Press (Nov. 9).
The incident took place inside an Odakyu Line rapid express train as it traveled between Shimokitazawa and Noborito stations at around 5:00 p.m. on September 16.
During that period, Masanori Takei allegedly smeared the unspecified bodily fluid on the right hand of the girl, a first-year middle school student.
Upon his arrest on suspicion of assault on Monday, Takei denied the allegations, according to the Tama Police Station.
