A violent incident occurred in Kabukicho, Shinjuku, Japan, a few days ago, in which a 43-year-old homeless man was beaten to death by many people, and the incident immediately aroused concern in Japanese society. Japan's Fuji News Network (FNN) on the 14th exposed a video of the victim seeking police help a few days before the incident, in which an 18-year-old teenager who participated in the killing had a fierce fight with the police.
According to a video released by FNN, a man dressed in yellow asked the police for help and said, "I can't come up with money", and then two teenagers approached the man and told the police: "The police don't have to intervene in this matter, this is civil", "We urgently lent him 100,000 yen, let him return the 100,000 yen is a matter of course!" According to reports, 100,000 yen is the admission fee for the man when he was beaten and injured by these teenagers earlier.

According to the report, the yellow-clad man and the teenager and others then had an argument, and the police intervened to try to stop the conflict, but one of the teenagers did not stop his behavior and tried to rush to the yellow-clad man, causing him to get into a fight with the police. During the fight, the teenager even knocked the police officer to the ground. The video is reportedly a few days after the man in yellow was reportedly beaten to death on November 27 on the roof of a building in Kabukicho, including several members of minors. On November 28, the police arrested three suspects involved in the incident, including an 18-year-old teenager who had a fight with the police in the video exposed by Japanese media on the 14th.
Kabukicho, Tokyo, is a gathering place for bad teenagers, and frequent violent incidents have become a social problem in Japan, and the video exposed by FNN has aroused attention on the Japanese Internet. While bashing the perpetrators of the juvenile behavior, many people believe that the death of the man in yellow should have been avoided and that the police should have arrested the teenager when the scene in the video occurred. In addition, many people have criticized Japan's juvenile law as too lenient, and 18-year-olds will not be severely punished even if they participate in the beating of people.
