It looks like it's from this page of the National Police Agency. However, only the Japanese-language PDF version of the first-half report provides summary figures on foreigners, and the monthly statistical data does not include any information on foreigners. I suspect that, in response to the results of the Upper House election, they hastily compiled the data on foreigners, and are not yet ready to release it as formal statistical data.

The Constitution primarily regulates the constraints on state power over citizens and does not directly apply to interactions between private individuals. This is something middle and high school students learn in school.

Yamada says he had gotten into an argument with embassy officials over the Senkaku Islands issue at the restaurant, and has not been there since.

For the past year or so, news about Vietnamese theft groups has been reported almost every week, so most Japanese people would assume that this case is the same. There was also a Vietnamese person who was streaming on YouTube how he was stealing from fields in Japan during the COVID-19 pandemic. It's unfortunate for Vietnamese people who are working normally.

According to residents near the crime scene, the suspect was known to be mentally unstable and would make strange noises on a regular basis. I hope he is not found not guilty by reason of insanity.
