Drink more!

The strong men relentlessly offered the woman more drinks. After being forced to drink several highly alcoholic cocktails, the woman was so dazed that she could not walk properly. The men put the drunken woman in a cab and took her to the main suspect’s apartment.

On September 8, the Kyoto Prefectural Police’s Investigation Section 1 arrested four men on suspicion of quasi-forcible sexual intercourse. The four suspects were Yuki Katai (21), Yugo Yamada (21), Ken Hamada (22), and Ryo Makino (21). All are members of the American football team at Doshisha University (Kamigyo-ku, Kyoto).

The incident occurred in the early morning hours of May 21. The four suspects were drinking at a bar in Nakagyo-ku, Kyoto City, when they approached some women they had never met before in the bar. They persistently offered alcohol to one of them, a 20-year-old female college student.

After more than three hours of drinking, Ms. A became unconscious, and the four put her in a car and took her to Katai’s house (Kamigyo-ku, Kyoto City), where they took advantage of her inability to resist and assaulted her for an hour from 4:30 a.m. onward. They took advantage of her inability to resist and sexually assaulted her one after another for an hour starting after 4:30 am. Moreover, the assaults were filmed with a smartphone. Probably, he had Ms. A drink with the intention of indecent assault from the beginning.

Ms. A submits a damage report to the Kyoto Prefectural Police on the afternoon of the same day. When the police checked the security camera near Katai’s house, they found the suspects taking Ms. A into a room. From the footage, they identified four suspects and arrested them. The police have yet to confirm or deny the suspects’ guilt.

In addition to cooperating fully with the investigation and clarification of the facts, we will take strict measures, including disciplinary action against the student who caused the incident and his club.
