OSAKA (TR) – Osaka Prefectural Police on Wednesday arrested a 63-year-old man after he allegedly stabbed a prostitute he summoned to his residence, reports Nikkan Sports (Jan. 7).

Officers arrested Kenji Kuroki, who resides in Joto Ward, on charges of attempted murder for using a knife to twice stab a female “delivery health” employee, a foreigner in her 30s, who arrived at his home around midnight.

A man who came to pick up the victim, whose received serious wounds to her abdomen, phoned emergency services upon arriving at the scene.

“I did not intend to stab her,” Kuroki is quoted by police in partially denying the allegations.
