Shinjuku Ward in Tokyo has issued a closure order to a business operating four minpaku (short-term rental) facilities for repeated violations of the Residential Stay Business Act, including failure to submit required reports. This is the second such order in Tokyo, and ward mayors in the capital are calling for stricter regulations due to increasing troubles.
Police arrested two men in their 20s on suspicion of preparing for a robbery near a precious metal buyer's office in Shinjuku, Tokyo. They were among eight men who appeared in two cars near the scene.
