Police focus on “entertainment industry infested” Nagoya route after arrest of suspect Sei Tanaka

Former “KAT-TUN” suspect Sei Tanaka was arrested by Aichi Prefectural Police on February 24 on suspicion of violating the Stimulants Control Law for possessing stimulants at a hotel in Nagoya City.

Speaking of Tanaka, he was fired from the Johnny’s Office in ’13 for “repeated violations of the rules.” In May 2005, he was arrested on a street in Shibuya Ward for violating the Marijuana Control Law, but the charges were later dropped.

He was arrested on suspicion of possessing about 0.164 grams of methamphetamine at a lodging facility in Naka Ward, Nagoya, at about 5:52 p.m. on January 30. The reason it took about a month to arrest him was to investigate whether the suspect’s property was definitely Tanaka’s or not.

After his arrest, a urine test reportedly showed a positive result. This probably means that he had been using drugs until recently,” said a reporter from a local newspaper.

Upon investigation, Tanaka denied the charges.

“I won’t answer anything until I talk to my lawyer.

The company is said to have said, “We are very happy to be able to help.

In a 2005 violation of the Marijuana Control Law, dried marijuana was found in his car, but he got away with it, claiming that it did not belong to him. Because of this, it seems that the Aichi Prefectural Police carefully investigated the case.

The fact that he tested positive for drugs suggests that a careful investigation was conducted, including the timing of his arrest. The police are said to be extraordinarily determined to further elucidate the route of acquisition.

The Aichi Prefectural Police have been in close contact with the Metropolitan Police Department in their investigation of Tanaka. It is said that the investigation is aimed at uncovering a drug supply route known as the “Nagoya route,” which has recently been circulating in the entertainment industry and clubs in the Tokyo area.

It is believed that he obtained the drugs from the music industry and its circles, but the Aichi Prefectural Police and the Metropolitan Police Department are conducting strict interrogations in order to trace the supply to the source above that level. I think it’s possible.

Every time an arrest is made, the entertainment industry is said to be contaminated with drugs. In order to restore public trust, it is time for a thorough cleansing operation.
