When questioned by the police, the man admitted his crime and said that he did it because he can feel at ease when surrounded by underwear.

I wrote both a short comic script and video game scenario based on panty thieves of Japan. After a decade of being buried in news on panty-thieving in this country, it dropped into my lap like a pair of knickers knocked from a second floor balcony clothes line with a pole.
