TOKYO: The Metropolitan Police Department on Monday (Jan 13) arrested Kinuko Iwamoto, former chancellor of Tokyo Women’s Medical University, on suspicion of illicitly having the university disburse about ¥120 million in connection with the construction of new campus buildings, investigative sources said.
The MPD suspects that Iwamoto, from Edogawa Ward, Tokyo, diverted some of this money for her personal use. It intends to continue to investigate to uncover the full extent of the case.
