The man arrested was Nagase Akira, 37 years old. After his arrest, Nagase began publishing memoirs in weekly magazines. In them, he expressed his resentment toward a new cult with which Shimizu was allegedly deeply involved. A writer who attended the ceremony also wrote a novel about Nagase’s incident.
