Japan has lodged a formal protest with Washington after a 20-year-old U.S. Marine stationed at Futenma Air Station was arrested on suspicion of robbing and murdering a 39-year-old Japanese woman at a hotel in Naha.
Foreign Minister Toshimitsu Motegi summoned U.S. Ambassador George Glass, expressing Japan’s “outrage” and demanding full cooperation with the investigation and measures to prevent another incident.
The case is likely to further inflame longstanding tensions in Okinawa, where the heavy U.S. military presence and crimes involving American servicemen have been sources of public anger for decades.
