A Charge of Carrying Invasive Instruments

Today I will talk about one of Minor Offenses Act in Japan, "sin-nyugu keitai no tsumi," the literal meaning of which is "a charge of carrying invasive instruments."

This law says that you have not to carry instruments that are used for home-invasion without justifiable causes.

In the text, spare keys, chisels and glass cutters are mentioned, but many other items fall under the category.

For example, screw drivers, pliers, nippers, files, penlights, and flashlights.

The point we should notice is that you can be accused of a crime if you have a penlight or a flashlight.

In fact, about a month ago, a man who carried a flashlight was arrested in Japan.

侵入具携帯の罪

今日は日本の軽犯罪法の一つ、「侵入具携帯の罪」を紹介します。

これは、正当な理由なく、住居侵入に用いられるような器具を携帯してはいけないというものです。

条文には、「合かぎ、のみ、ガラス切り」が記載されていますが、他にも多くのものが該当します。

例えば、ドライバー、ペンチ、ニッパー、やすり、ペンライト、懐中電灯などです。

ここで注意すべきは、懐中電灯を持っていると罪になる可能性があるということです。

実際、およそ一ヶ月前に、懐中電灯を携帯していた男が逮捕され、話題になりました。
