A Saudi Arabian diplomat working at the Embassy in Japan, was sent to prosecutors by the Tokyo Metropolitan Police on the 6th for allegedly violating Tokyo’s Public Nuisance Ordinance by groping a woman’s chest at a lounge in Roppongi.
The Tokyo police requested the man appear at the embassy twice in October, but he did not comply. It is believed he returned to Saudi Arabia in November.
The allegations sent to prosecutors state that around 2:50 a.m. on July 15, at a lounge in Roppongi, the man groped the chest of a woman in her 20’s, whom he did not know.
I’ve heard from someone who used to live in Saudi Arabia for yonks, and they mentioned there was some serious gender segregation back in the day. Women couldn’t go out and about, drive, travel, or even do their shopping without a bloke lending a hand. It was a bit of a shocker to learn that having a gander at a woman could cop you a fine from the government over there.
