The police have arrested four people, including a 45-year-old gang leader on suspicion of dumping the body of a 55-year-old man in the forest in Ogano-machi, Saitama Prefecture.
The man was reported to have been missing since September of this year after being abducted in a parking lot in Isesaki City, Gunma Prefecture. The police have arrested a total of 16 people who were believed to have been involved in the abduction during their investigation of the man’s whereabouts.
On the 15th, they found the body of a man buried in the mountains in Ogano-machi.

The police are continuing to carry out further investigations.
