Police said a woman in Japan was arrested for allegedly blocked by her naked partner on the balcony, which led to his death from the cold, police said on Friday.
The 54-year-old guy was arrested on charges of attack and death detention, Nagasaki's southern Japanese police reported at AFP.
In February 2022, the woman “ordered the victims to go to the balcony while he was naked and restricted it,” said the local official Masofum Tonigov.
The next day, police threw themselves at the scene after an emergency call, and the 49-year-old boy was found “almost dead” in the room, Tonigov said, adding that he later died of hypothermia.
Temperature that night dropped to a minimum of 3.7 Celsius (38.66 Fahrenheit), Mainichi Daily reports.
Earlier, the woman attacked her partner, who was her husband with the law, with a knife, leaving him with a nose injury that took two weeks to cure.
The opening revealed a sliced wound on the human nose, and the police are investigating the possibility that the man has fallen victim to daily violence in the family, Mainichi reports.
The woman denies the allegations, saying the police that “I did nothing”, – Tonigov quotes her.
Police did not say why it took so much time to officially charge it.
