Saitama man steals ¥3.9 million at SKE48 event in Osaka

OSAKA (TR) – Osaka Prefectural Police on Sunday arrested a 21-year-old male company employee for allegedly robbing proceeds from an event featuring popular idol group SKE48 in Suminoe Ward, reports the Mainichi Shimbun (Dec 14).

Ryota Kawabata, a resident of Kawaguchi City, Saitama Prefecture, is alleged to have entered a restricted area and stolen about 3.88 million yen in cash obtained through the sale of CDs and other items during a meet-and-greet event for fans of the Nagoya-based group at exhibit hall Intex Osaka.

Kawabata, who has been charged with theft, admits to the allegations. He told police that he spotted the cash inside a plastic while he waited in line. “I thought that if I were to take the money I could use it to pursue hobbies,” the suspect is quoted by officers from the Suminoe Police Station.

After the theft, a 34-year-old male staff member chased the suspect for approximately 300 meters before apprehending him.

SKE48 is a sister unit of Tokyo-based group AKB48.

Ex-SKE48 idol Momona Kito abandons plans to end porn career

TOKYO (TR) – She is a victim of her own success.

Following the positive reception of her debut, Momona Kito, a former top member of all-girl idol group SKE48, has decided to extend her career in adult video (AV), label Muteki announced on Tuesday, reports Tokyo Sports (Dec. 4).

“Pleasant Feeling,” the 21-year-old’s second in which she stars under the name Yua Mikami, will hit store shelves on New Year’s Day.

In what was intended to be a one-film career, Muteki released “Princess Peach” on June 1. The label described the 180-minute DVD as overflowing with non-stop erotic action that culminates in a three-way session.

Her fans applauded, with “Princess Peach” subsequently zooming up the sales charts at DMM.com. (For the past month, the title is ranked at number 10.)

However, speculation swirled about whether her participation in the sex scenes had in some way been faked.

This time, there should be no such controversy. According to the label, the scenes in “Pleasant Feeling” most assuredly live up to its title for the actress. “It was embarrassing,” she wrote on her Twitter account after watching select clips of the film, no doubt to the immense delight of her fans.

In 2009, Kito made her debut with SKE48, which is a sister group to AKB48. Before her retirement in April of last year she was included the 18-member Team E.
