Japanese police found the body of a 23-year-old girl, naked and tied to a tree in Hitachiota Forest in Ibaraki, Japan. Authorities identified the victim as Rina Arano, a famous Japanese pornographic actress who had been missing since June 8.
“Rina Arano was stripped naked and tied to a tree. She had been dead for almost two weeks,” said the local police. The autopsy of the body determined that the cause of death was a fracture of the hyoid bone, which serves as the junction of the various frontal muscles of the neck.
According to The Japan Times, the main suspect has already been arrested. This is Hiroyuki Sanpei.
The man denies having killed the porn actress, but admits to having met her. The two exchanged messages on social media and met at the Mito train station.
After this encounter, Sanpei will have tried to take the young woman to his home in Hitachiota. In his testimony to authorities, he says he tied the adult film actress’s hands, but with her consent. Then he dropped it off at a commercial surface.
Surveillance cameras show the suspect’s car, with Rina inside, heading towards the Hitachiota area, where Sanpei lives and where Rina was found dead. Video surveillance cameras later show the same vehicle driving near the forest where the young woman’s body was discovered.
The police found Rina’s cell phone inside Hiroyuki Sanpei’s house. The investigation into the plight of the porn star’s death continues.
