▼ Japanese Police Probe 11-Year-Old's Death As Possible Corpse Abandonment
- Category:Other
Police in Kyoto Prefecture, western Japan, have launched an investigation into the suspected abandonment of a corpse after the body of an 11-year-old boy was found in a forest.
Elementary school student Adachi Yuki was found dead in the mountains of Nantan City on Monday. He had been missing since March 23.
Police say a detailed examination of the body failed to determine the cause of death. They believe the boy died in late March, around the time he was reported missing.
Police say he had no noticeable external injuries. But they say the fact that he was not wearing shoes and that his backpack was found elsewhere suggest someone abandoned the body.
They say the body was not covered in leaves, showed no signs of having been hidden and had no major tears in his clothing.
Police are retracing the child's movements before he went missing. They are searching his home and investigating other clues that could shed light on the circumstances that led to his death.
