- About 1.5 million people in Japan suffer from dangerous loneliness
New delhi date. 31 July 2023, Monday
A strangely-poor case has emerged from Japan. There, the police arrested a woman because she had made more than two and a half thousand fake emergency calls to the police. Police have arrested 51-year-old Niroko Hategami of Matsudo in Chiba Prefecture, east of Tokyo.
2,761 fake calls made to the police
The woman made about 2,761 fake calls to the police. Along with this, he is also accused of obstructing the work of the local fire department. Officials alleged that the woman made calls from her mobile and through other means for at least two years and nine months between August 2020 and May 2023.
Why was calling so often?
The woman admitted that she was calling from her house and other places in the vicinity. The question is why the woman was doing this. The woman replied that she was feeling lonely and wanted someone to listen to her and pay attention to her.
Complained to the police about stomach and leg pain
When the woman called the police, she complained of abdominal pain, drug overdose, leg pain and other symptoms.
I did not make any call
On the other hand, when local services went to her, she often refused medical help. At the same time she would categorically deny any call and say - I did not make any call. He was arrested after the Matsudo Fire Department filed a police complaint.
More than 1 million people suffer from dangerous loneliness
The study found that about 1.5 million people in Japan suffer from severe loneliness, levels of which have risen sharply since COVID-19. Niroko's case is reminiscent of Charlotte Walkinshaw, from Ramsgate, who was jailed for two years in August 2022 after making more than 30 fake calls to the emergency services. The defense then argued that Walkinshaw had suffered from depression several times in his life for which the judge showed great sympathy.
