2. The difference between violating public nuisance ordinances and committing indecent assault without consent.
There are two main types of crimes that can be considered for touching a woman's body: violation of the Tokyo Metropolitan Ordinance on Prevention of Public Nuisance and indecent assault without consent under the Penal Code. The suspect in this case is accused of the former, a violation of the Public Nuisance Ordinance.
Lawyer Takeshi Okano explains on his X account that violating the public nuisance prevention ordinance is equivalent to what is commonly known as groping. He points out that the legal penalties for each are as follows, and that the outcome will differ greatly depending on which crime is committed.
| crime name | legal punishment |
| Violation of Tokyo Metropolitan Nuisance Prevention Ordinance (So-called molester) |
Imprisonment for up to six months or a fine of up to 500,000 yen. |
| Indecent assault without consent (Penal Code) | Imprisonment for a term of 6 months to 10 years (no fines) |
Okano also stated that being intoxicated is not a reason to lessen the crime.
