Hyogo Police reach settlement over wrongful arrest and 14.5-hour interrogation of female store clerk over “theft” that had never actually happened: “I kept telling them over and over, I didn’t steal it, but they wouldn’t listen…If they had paid even a little attention this could have been avoided”

    1. You never want to get arrested in Japan. At that point you are presumed guilty until innocence can be proven beyond a shadow of doubt or any conflicting evidence.

      Japan can offer a very relaxed and nice life, but if ever you fall on the wrong side of the law it will become hell.

      These police officers need to be interrogated for 15 hours straight and forced into false confessions.
