Arrested in Tokyo – English Speaking Attorney Japan
[Case File] Sex crimes
I came to Tokyo on holiday with some friends.
We were enjoying a night out at a club in Roppongi and ran into some girls. They seemed kind of drunk but we had some fun together, and I decided to get out with one of the girls.
The two of us went for a couple more drinks around Akasaka and ended up in a hotel. She didn’t seem to mind having sex and I remember her saying she liked foreign men, but after it was over, she started crying and called the police telling them I raped her.
Some police officers arrived and arrested me on the spot. I told them that she had consented and I didn’t rape her but they still wanted to take samples from me. Can I resist this?

Our response:
You will be able to get immediate legal representation if you or your friend is able to visit us at one of our offices located in Tokyo, Yokohama, Nagoya, Osaka or Fukuoka. We specialize in criminal defense cases in a rape case such as the above; the first step would be to negotiate a settlement with the so-called “victim” i.e. the girl.
Passive aggressive behavior towards the police may extend the period of your detention unnecessarily.
We are a law firm in Japan specializing in criminal defense with offices that can be visited in Tokyo, Yokohama, Nagoya, Osaka and Fukuoka.English speaking staff available weekdays 9am to 6pm (JST/UST+9)
