Gunma assemblyman arrested for groping woman politician's breast PDF Print E-mail
Tuesday, 26 February 2008

TATEBAYASHI, Gunma -- A member of the Meiwa Municipal Assembly who groped a fellow politician's breast during a night of drunken carousing has been arrested, police said

The 48-year-old assemblyman, whose name has not been released, was arrested for indecent assault after he fondled the left breast of a 52-year-old woman who also serves on the Gunma Prefecture town's local assembly.

The assemblyman admits to the allegations.

"The booze made me do it. I'm really sorry," he said.

Police said the incident occurred in a minivan on the way to a restaurant following a party between members of the Meiwa assembly in Tatebayashi on Sept. 20 last year, with the man reaching over and squeezing the woman's left breast.

The woman filed a criminal complaint against her colleague with the Tatebayashi Police Station on Oct. 2 last year.
