Police arrested three men, including a Japanese national, for the kidnapping of a tourist last month. Operatives of the Philippine National Police’s Anti-Kidnapping Group (AKG) rescued on April 5 victim Yuji Nakajima, 32, of Tokyo, at a house in Plaridel town, Bulacan province. His alleged kidnappers — brothers Roberto and Reggie Reyes and Miyashita Takashi, a Japanese national — were arrested in separate operations in Pasig City and Parañaque City. Glenn Dumlao said Nakajima had been kidnapped at the behest of Japanese national Yusuke Obara, Nakajima’s business partner, who was now being hunted in Japan. Police were still hunting two other Filipino suspects in the Nakajima kidnapping.
