11th Oct 2007
Police in Japan arrested a man who ran an internet suicide site for allegedly killing a woman who paid him to help her die, an official said today.
Kazunari Saito, a 33-year-old electrician, was arrested yesterday for allegedly giving Sayaka Nishizawa, 21, sleeping pills and suffocating her in April, a police official in Kanagawa said.
Nishizawa contacted the suspect through an internet suicide site he hosted and paid him 200,000 yen (€1,220), according to the official.
Nishizawa’s father found her body on April 16 in her apartment in Kanagawa, just south of Tokyo.
