A-san
A-san, a 21-year-old male at the time, was arrested in September 1986 for drug-related charges and became a key figure in a murder investigation that had left police struggling for leads. During his interrogation, he implicated a younger acquaintance, Akira Maekawa, in the killing of a 15-year-old girl, suggesting he had helped Maekawa evade detection. This claim would later be scrutinized during a retrial of Maekawa, raising questions about the integrity of police procedures and the impact of A-san's statements on the investigation.
