In May this year, a 38-year-old staff member of a municipal middle school in Fukuoka City was arrested for violating the Stalker Control Law. He is suspected of installing a GPS device on a 30-year-old woman’s car in her home parking lot without permission on two separate occasions. The suspect, Funaishi Kazuo, denies the allegations. The police identified him after analyzing data from the GPS device and surveillance camera footage. The Fukuoka City Board of Education expressed deep regret over the incident and plans to take strict action. Source: NHK
