Tatsuya Ichihashi, the suspect of murder of British teacher at an English school in Japan, was arrested today at a ferry port in Osaka, todays news reported.
Tatsuya Ichihashi is suspected to have killed Lindsay Ann Hawker, an English teacher from UK, 2 years ago. This case was known as a ghastly murder as her body was cut into parts.
Tatsuya Ichihashi took some plastic surgeries for disguise. One of the hospitals that treated him an opperation found he seemed to be the suspect. And the police showed the photos of NEW Tatsuya Ichihashi, which made a big sensation to public. After all, his plastic surgery turned to be the chance for the police’s pursuit.
Some say he is Korean living in Japan. I’m not sure if the information is correct but it seems true that crime rate of immigrants to Japan or naturalized immigrants not only from Korea but also from some other countries is really high. In any case, once a person gets naturalized as Japanese, he or she must live under the law of Japan and with a heart of Japan. So we call the person ”Japanese”. Growing number of immigrants will bring more problems we’ve never experienced. In the society of Japan, we must keep harmony we used to have, although it seems to be at risk.
I’ve seen the victim’s parents on TV, and it’s beyond my words thinking how they are sad about it. Their nightmare will never end as far as their doughter never comes back. But I hope today’s news would ease their mind even a little bit.
