川崎かわさき 遺体いたい遺棄いき事件じけん 神奈川かながわ県警けんけいが対応たいおう状況じょうきょうの検証けんしょうチームを設置せっち

The Kanagawa Prefectural Police Headquarters established a team on the 9th to review their series of responses regarding the case in which a womans body was abandoned in Kawasaki City and her former partner was arrested.

In this case, the bereaved family and others claim that the police did not take sufficient action even though the woman consulted them about being stalked. The police say they will check if there were any problems and make the results public.

In this case, Hideyuki Shirai 27 from Kawasaki-ku, Kawasaki City, has been arrested on suspicion of abandoning the body of Ayasayo Okazaki 20, a former part-time employee he previously dated, at his home.

Mr. Okazaki went missing after reporting to those around him that he was being stalked by the suspect last December, and his family and others claim that the police did not take sufficient action.

From these circumstances, the Kanagawa Prefectural Police Headquarters established a team on the 9th to review the series of police responses.

The verification team consists of 13 members and will be interviewing officials and staff from the Kawasaki Rinko Police Station, which had received consultations from Ms. Okazaki regarding the response to the victim and the investigation status until the suspect was arrested, as well as executives and personnel from the Prefectural Police Headquarters’ Personal Safety Measures Division, which handles cases such as stalking and domestic violence.

They are investigating whether there were any problems with instructions from police station executives or guidance from police headquarters, and say they will promptly compile and announce the results.
