Woman Arrested for Throwing Raw Eggs

 



In Kawabe Town, Gifu Prefecture, a 53 year old woman was arrested for throwing raw eggs at her neighbor's house on two days. According to police, Yoshiko Kakamu is accused of harassing her neighbor by throwing multiple raw eggs at the neighbor's house on two different days in July. 


Ms. Kakamu denied the allegations, but police have surveillance camera footage showing her throwing the eggs from a window in her house. (Japanese houses are close together in many places). The neighbor claims Kakamu has been throwing eggs regularly since December 2019. Kakamu was arrested on the same charges three years ago, but continued to commit similar acts since then. 


The two women have been neighbors for 20 years. 


I can't help but read the crime page of the Japan Today news. How does this stuff make national news? How is it that Ms. Kakamu continues to throw eggs at her neighbor for almost 5 years? What kind of punishment did she get when she was arrested three years ago?  Curious minds want to know.


Did you ever have some kind of feud with a neighbor? How did it end?
