Rearrested for Indecency: The Tragic Reason Behind Former Table Tennis Champion Kai Konishi’s Downfall

The curtains are always closed

The man previously mentioned spoke with a grim expression.

“When the first arrest happened, my LINE notifications were going off constantly with messages saying, ‘Konishi from the table tennis school has been arrested; it’s on the news.’ He’s a celebrity among table tennis enthusiasts. However, he never struck me as someone who would do something indecent to women. Even when I saw the footage of his arrest, he was standing tall and looking straight ahead, so I thought it might be some kind of mistake. But after being arrested twice.”

According to nearby residents, there were suspicious aspects about Konishi’s table tennis school. The curtains were always drawn, effectively concealing the interior of the classroom.

“When the school opened in 2014, the curtains were open, and you could see the practice from outside. However, there were apparently some people who would peek in to watch the young female staff members playing in their short pants… Rather than just watching the practice, they would press their faces against the glass to stare at the female staff. I heard that Mr. Konishi’s wife found this unsettling and instructed him to keep the curtains closed.”

In a classroom where no one could see in, did Konishi allow his fantasies to grow unchecked? If his wife’s consideration ultimately led to his crimes, it is indeed a cruel irony.

Konishi is reportedly continuing to remain silent during the police interrogation.
