On April 23, Niigata Prefectural Police arrested a man, 63, a dispatched worker in Midori Ward, Sagamihara City, on suspicion of attempted extortion.
According to investigators, the man claimed to be in a relationship with Kaede, 29, a member of the local idol group Negicco, and sent an email to her office in late April, saying, "I didn't expect to receive a marriage report. I want a direct apology". In late April, he allegedly sent several threatening e-mails to the e-mail address of her office, claiming that he was dating Kaede
Kaede announced her marriage to a regular guy on Twitter last December. According to her office, Kaede's Twitter page has repeatedly received untrue posts from the same person for several years. After the announcement of her marriage, the content became more extreme and she filed a damage report with the Niigata Central Police Station.
On the 23rd, Kaede posted a message on Twitter, "I apologize for worrying all of you who have been supporting me. I apologize to all of you who have been supporting me, and I ask for your continued support.

[+15,754, -358] I guess they were dating in his mind.
He's a dangerous person by any measure, and I'm glad he was arrested before it became a big deal
[+8,890, -260] I don't know how he have lived for 63 years. It's beyond belief. How sad to be madly in love with a young woman in the last chapter of your life
[+6,858, -173] He's so convinced they're dating. Asking for a direct apology,,, scary, it's too scary. There's a lot of incidents like this
[+4,967, -135] A woman I know (in her 50s) was like that.
She went to a Johnny's concerts and she said:
"xx You have a different look in your eyes when you look at me"
"No matter how many people are in the audience, he always finds me and makes eye contact and signs autographs"
"I'm dating him and we're connected at heart"
It was hard to keep from saying, "Good for you"
[+3,649, -116] There was an incident with a female employee not long ago. Just like that, there are old men and women who mistake being nice to you for work. The old man or woman who misunderstands that they are being kind to them because the person likes her them.
