AKB48′s Anna Iriyama and Rina Kawaei and a male staff member are now recovering after a successful surgery. The three were attacked by a saw-wielding man during this past Sunday’s handshake event.
Suspect Satoru Umeta (24) has admitted to the attempted murder charge after his arrest. His mother, who has apologised before the press event last Sunday night, was asked if his son was an AKB48 fan. According to her, she did not see CD’s, concert tickets or any evidence of his son being interested in the popular idol group.
We sincerely hope for the physical and emotional recovery of the girls and the staff member from this dreadful event.
