Police changed in the staff on August 25th, and Manseibashi Police Station in Akihabara put additional 20 police officers from this month. With additional officers, police tries to make the best preparations (by MSN Sankei News)." Since we entered September, I checked the "DVD stores that sell products not sold publicly." Including a bootleg & non-restricted adult anime DVD shop, stores were still opened.

Police changed in the staff on August 25th, and Manseibashi Police Station in Akihabara put additional 20 police officers from this month. With additional officers, police tries to make the best preparations (by MSN Sankei News)."

According to the Metropolitan Police Department, there are some illegal DVD stores and the sex industries in Akihabara. Those stores may be a source of money of gangs and/or foreign gangsters. Therefore, by increasing the number of police officers, Police Department tries strengthening patrols as well as exposing illegal sex industry.

Since we entered September, I checked the "DVD stores that sell products not sold publicly." Including a bootleg & non-restricted adult anime DVD shop, DVD stores were still opened- nothing was changed yet.

Just like before, the store that had the word, "DVD," on the wall was opened.

In Akihabara (Sotokanda, Chiyoda-ku), owners of buildings have a duty to stop opening illegal sex industry businesses (a store that sells obscene videos, provides a room to get "massage," etc). In Akihabara, there are some stores real ladies are working at, but according to Akihabara Map (Ura), "there should be only about two stores that are considered as sex industry in Akihabara!?"
