Go Tokyo Your Experience
Former idol girl group AKB48 member Yoko Kojima was involved in an accident on the evening of the 28th on the streets of Shibuya, Tokyo. A 42 year old foreign man forcefully hugged and pushed her down from behind. The suspect is currently under police control.
The shock of this incident is that this man claimed to be a student studying in Taiwan, China, China, and was suspected of being related to two other similar incidents, which attracted widespread attention in Japanese society.
According to Japanese media reports, Yoko Kojima had just finished her photo album commemorative event that evening and was leaving the venue with the staff. Just on the bustling streets of Shibuya, she was unexpectedly pushed to the ground by a man who had launched a secret attack. The on-site staff quickly subdued the man, and the police immediately arrived and arrested him based on the current offense.
After being arrested, the litigant claimed to be a 42 year old foreign student from Taiwan, China, China, who is going to learn a language in the future. It is worth mentioning that Yoko Kojima experienced a similar fan harassment incident in August this year and reported it to the police. The police are investigating whether there is a connection between these two incidents.
The organizer of the event, Baodao Society, stated that Yoko Kojima was not seriously injured, but to ensure her safety, they have decided to cancel the photo book signing event originally scheduled for the 29th and apologize for not being able to meet with fans.
