An elementary school principal has been arrested in Saitama after being caught taking upskirt photos of teenage girls in a supermarket.
According to the Metropolitan Police Department, the 58-year-old elementary school principal went on his secret filming spree after attending a school entrance ceremony on the 10th of October last year. Police rushed to the scene after a civilian reported seeing a man behaving suspiciously, and he was arrested for violating a nuisance prevention ordinance.
It is unknown whether the timing of his crime, having been committed shortly after watching a school entrance ceremony, was a co-incidence, or whether the ceremony incited his lusts and drove him to investigate the matter of under-age girls in greater detail.
The board of education has declined to comment on the matter, saying that they are currently discussing it with police.
They must release the evidence in full so the public can be sure these are actual upskirt photos of young schoolgirls. Of course, I just want to be sure a fine principal is not the victim of false accusations…
Never understood why taking photographs of something that can be easily seen was illegal.
You can physically look under girls skirts all day and nobody can do a damn thing about it but once you take pictures? Then the law gets involved and you go to jail.
Boggles the mind…
Why don’t you go outside and spend a day looking under girls’ skirts. I am sure the police will gladly explain things to you in no uncertain terms.
School entrance ceremony in October? In Japan?
Fake news alert!
It’s just another of Sankaku’s quality translations. From the source (dated April 11):
“伊東校長は今月１日に着任し、１０日に入学式に出席していたということです”
Principal Ito was appointed on the first of this month and attended the entrance ceremony on the 10th.
Why? He’s just try to make sure those girls are real ladies, not some TRAP disguise as pretty girl try to cheat honest man. A good principal will always look out for his student, & he probably just forgot he’s not in the school area while practicing his RIGHT as a school principal.
10台 doesn’t necessarily mean teenage, as it includes preteens from 10-12. This guy was taking pictures of JS, so they couldn’t have been teens.
JS students start at about 11/12 for first graders and around 14/15 by the time they graduate. So they could very well have been teens. Source, I work in a JHS.
The guy who got arrested last year worked at the elementary next to my JHS.
