TOKYO (TR) – Tokyo Metropolitan Police have arrested a 43-year-old man for allegedly providing contraception in lieu of cash to a middle school girl for sex last year, reports NHK (Jan. 21).
Last April, Keiichi Ono, of no known occupation, allegedly gave low-dose birth control pills to the girl, then 13, at a hotel in Tachikawa City for sexual relations while knowing she was a minor.
Upon his arrest on suspicion of child prostitution, Ono admitted to the allegations. “I did it out of sexual curiosity,” the suspect told police. “I bought the contraception online.”
