Bodies of two women found in Nara mountains; man arrested

Japanese police have arrested a 37-year-old man suspected of abandoning the bodies of two women in the Nara Mountains. The victims are believed to be a 44-year-old woman and her 20-year-old daughter from Iga City. The suspect, Takahiro Imakita, a local company employee, has admitted to the allegations. Police say Imakita is married and had an extramarital affair with the mother. The case came to light after the daughter’s university failed to reach her, prompting welfare authorities to investigate. Imakita voluntarily cooperated with police starting in early July before admitting to the crime.
