KYOTO —

Police on Tuesday arrested a Ground Self-Defense Force technical officer for violation of the prefectural nuisance prevention ordinance after he was caught filming up the skirt of a high school student in the town of Mukou.

According to police, 35-year-old Kazuyoshi Aizaka is suspected of using his mobile phone’s camera to film up the skirt of a 3rd year high school student who was on her way to school on the Nagaoka-Tenjin station platform of the Hankyu-Kyoto line.

Police said Aizaka was carrying a bag with a hole in it for the phone’s camera, and was discovered by an officer patrolling the station. He has admitted to the charge, saying he got a thrill from seeing up girls’ skirts.

Japanese girls are thinking that wearing a short skirt is cool. most of the young girls don't expect those men seeing like that. they hate perverts' glance, they just want to be cute. Japanese fashion is going the wrong way.

anyway, Japanese law and rehabilitation program is too useless to the sex crimes in Japan.

Anyway... it was disgusting. And all I really wanted to know was, how did he disable the camera sound on his phone! ???

Only picture taking makes a sound. The movie taking soft does not.

These cameras in train and special task force for groping will not help! limit the pornography here especially having young HS girls as objects of sex, plus yeah the mini skirts, it's cute but it's really obvious that it's the root of these misbehaviours....

The guy got caught, so he's not intelligence material. Also, he doesn't seem suitable for an elite outfit, either. Sayonara.

I just wonder why Japanese school girls wear soooooooooooooo short skirt? even in soooooooooooo cold winter?

Up-the-skirt-filmers are real losers and should visit a shrink. If they like to see someone's panties and make a picture or a film, they should go to a professional woman and pay a little extra money. She will be willing to wear a school uniform...

I was walking up the steps in the station yesterday and I could see the underwear of both high school girls walking a few steps in front of me. If I whipped out my mobile or any camera and snapped a few shots, I could get arrested for that? Sheesh...

The skirts are much too short, that's for sure. But I again have to go back to impulse control. If the guy gets a thrill looking up high school girls' skirts, then he should just go stand on the train station steps and look up. Plenty of opportunity, though he'd probably get arrested for loitering. Taking a picture, though, takes this kind of leering straight from creepy and disgusting to full-blown invasion of privacy and kiddy porn levels. I'm getting pretty sick of reading about these perverts and their groping, pic-snapping tendencies. Hey, skirt!wearing!girls -- if you want to really mess with these guys, wear wooly longjohns under your skirts. Warm, practical, and about as alluring as a dead rat.

Just smile and look up Sarge. No need to dig for anything. Don't ruin the moment. Savor it. I don't care if they have short skirts. I like them. But don't get all pissy if I'm looking up it going up the escalator. Now if I take a pic or film then you can be upset. This is a non issue. He could have freaked out and killed someone so I think this is a minor crime... pardon the pun.

These people should work as investigators such as the FBI or Insurance Companies. They would probably obtain good snapshots to resolve their mission.

Perv! Can't these guys get their thrills at home watching internet porn?! And they should let school girls wear pants! If girls want to dress provacatively on their own time, that's their business but making teen girls wear short skirts is sexist.

While I agree that it's slimy behaviour, it's a bit reactionary to insinuate that there is an actual mandate in place to enforce a "short skirt" dress code. The length of most school uniform skirts seem pretty reasonable; the girls who bare skin, more often than not, are choosing to roll them up. Again, it's not an excuse for these weak willed clowns to get their creep on though.
