Tax accountant in women’s clothing arrested for flashing in Saitama

SAITAMA (TR) – Saitama Prefectural Police on Monday arrested a 45-year-old male tax accountant for exposing himself to a woman in Tokorozawa City last year, reports Sankei Sports (March 30).

On November 21 at 11:30 p.m., Katsumi Sekine, a board member of Sekine Management Consulting, revealed the lower half of his body to a woman in her 40s by rolling up the black one-piece dress he was wearing.

The woman was returning home from work via a road in the Yamaguchi area. After the incident, the suspect fled the scene. However, an eyewitness account and evidence left behind lead police to the suspect, according to the Saitama Shimbun (March 30).

Sekine, who has been charged with public indecency, has reportedly admitted to the allegations. “I could not suppress my sexual desire,” the accountant is quoted by officers from the Tokorozawa Police Station. He also admitted that his hobby is wearing women’s clothing.

Police are now investigating whether Sekine has been involved in other crimes.
