A sweat shirt (body color: white, sleeves: purple) was abandoned by the
criminal at the scene of the murder of a family of four, including small
children, which occurred in Kami-soshigaya 3-chome, Setagaya-ku.
It has been revealed that only ten of these sweat shirts were sold within
the Tokyo metropolitan area.
Out of the ten sweat shirts, we have discovered the owner of one. We have
been trying hard to locate the other nine.
There were only four shops selling casual clothes exclusively at the time
of the incident which sold this type of sweat shirt.
|
 |
Three were sold at "M/X, Seiseki-sakuragaoka Branch", which is
located in front of Seiseki-sakuragaoka Station on the Keio Line. |
|
|
Two were sold at "M/X, Hachioji Keio SC Branch", which is located
inside the building of Keio Hachioji Station. |
|
|
Three were sold at "Marufuru Ogikubo", which was located inside
the building of JR Ogikubo Station. |
|
|
Two were sold at "Marufuru Aoto", which was located inside the
building of Aoto Station on the Keisei Line. |

If you have the same kind of this sweat shirt or know someone who does, please let us know.
You may be afraid of reporting this to the police, thinking that if you
have this sweat shirt or remember having bought one, you may be treated
as a criminal. There is no need to worry about such a thing..
Because the criminal took off his sweat shirt and abandoned it at the scene
of the crime.
Having the same sweat shirt right now would, therefore, prove that you
are not the criminal.
Identifying the whereabouts of nine other sweat shirts would lead us to
identify the criminal.
Please help us investigate.
Those who report to us may be requested to give us their sweat shirt, but
we will provide them with a new sweat shirt of similar style. |
|
| We would not usually disclose the names of shops which may have sold this
sweat shirt. However, thanks to kind generosity of Marufuru Corporation,
(which is assisting us to ensure the earliest possible arrest of the killer,)
we have decided to disclose the location of the shops. |
