Sakai Noriko's husband arrested for possession of stimulants

Sakai Noriko's husband, Takasou Yuuichi was arrested in the wee hours of 3 August on the street of Shibuya for possession of stimulants. The Shibuya Police Station announced that Takasou was being stopped for regular questioning when he was found to have stimulants on him. Takasou is now the owner of a ski and snowboard shop named "CORE SIDE" in Minami Aoyama.

Takasou and Sakai got to know each other in 1998 through a famous DJ friend and got married that year as Sakai was pregnant. After the birth of their son who is now 10 years old, Sakai returned to work after a 10-month maternity break. However, rumours of their impending divorce have been circulating all these years.

With response to this matter, Sakai's agency, Sun Music has said that they are unable to contact Sakai at this point in time.

Meanwhile, Takasou has confessed that the stimulants were for his personal use. He had hid the plastic bag containing the stimulants inside his underwear. At the same time, Shibuya Police Station has done a search of his home and will be investigating how he got the stimulants.
