Kanagawa prefectural police have arrested a 55-year-old man on suspicion of attempted theft and breaking into a female work subordinate's apartment and searching for her underwear.
According to police, Tomohiro Suzuki, a company employee from Ebina, Kanagawa Prefecture, was arrested after breaking into the apartment of the woman in her 30s, in Yamato City, Kanagawa Prefecture, at around 7 p.m. on Nov 15, Sankei Shimbun reported.
Police said Suzuki took a key from the woman's bag in June and made a duplicate key, which he used to enter the apartment about 40 times since then. He took photos of her underwear and also installed miniature cameras in the bathroom and kitchen.
The incident came to light on Nov 17 when Suzuki was questioned on suspicion of taking voyeuristic photos at a game center in Tokyo's Shibuya Ward, and a video of the woman’s underwear was found on his smartphone.
Police said Suzuki has partially admitted to the allegation and quoted him as saying, “I did go into her apartment because I liked looking at her underwear but I never planned to steal anything. I had feelings for her.”

He had feelings for her, eh. Well, lust is feelings, isn't it.

Another good reason not to tell creepy colleagues where you live. .... If you have colleagues who are creepy...
Fighto!
Lengthy jail time needed for this sick, perverted offender.
When released, permanently ban him from approaching any female or living within 100 metres of one.

She should be flattered.
Fighto!
That a serial pervert stalked her, broke into her home multiple times. and installed cameras in her toilet?
Unbelievable.
He didn't kill anyone. But if something were to happen to him while he is inside... well, stuff happens.

Social media is showing on a daily basis, robbery and assault crime is increasing by the day in Japan by mostly young Japanese men. The panty obsessed image painted here as kawaii crime to snicker at is masking up the real crime wave going in Japan.
Something serious is forming underneath Japan society and no one is speaking up on it.

Hope this guy can get the help he needs otherwise can't imagine any positive outcome

"...robbery and assault crime is increasing by the day in Japan by mostly young Japanese men."
Young men? The suspect in this story is a 55-year-old man...

Another disgusting Japanese pervert caught.

If you can't find it after the 39th break-in, maybe give up?

Anyway, he did a crime. This is definitely fact.

These boys get creepier by the day. Fifty-five years old and probably has never had a meaningful conversation with a woman. 'I had feelings for her so I broke into her apartment to look at her underwear in hopes that it would make her like me.' Yeah, I've heard of that working all over the world. Not. If he were related to me, I'd backslap the p out of him.

say pervert man, as long as you present me with new packaged undies, you can take my old ones as long as you want.

So police was able to guess a person's name by watching photos of their underwear ?
That is a skill !
I still wonder why he would be accused of attempted theft since he did not steal in 40 times, except if the article misses some information.
