The boy band member is suspected of punching a woman in her 20s in the face at a parking lot on Friday evening.
Tokyo police detained Shuto Inomata, a 25-year-old member of the Japanese boy band Timelesz, on Saturday evening for allegedly assaulting a woman in her 20s, according to investigative sources. The incident allegedly took place in a parking lot adjacent to a convenience store in Tokyo’s Koto Ward on Friday evening. Inomata is accused of punching the victim in the face, resulting in minor injuries.
The woman reportedly sought assistance at the store, stating that she had been punched by her boyfriend. Store staff and passersby then alerted the police. Inomata denied the allegations, asserting that his hand had accidentally struck the woman during an argument. Inomata became a member of Timelesz in February of the previous year after successfully completing an online audition.
