Nagoya man suspected of more than 90 rapes

Police said Friday they have arrested a 27-year-old man for allegedly raping a woman in her apartment last September, and added that the man is a suspect in more than 90 other sexual assaults in the city since 2004. Police have identified the suspect as Seiichi Uesugi, 27, a company employee from Nagoya. He has been charged with raping a 23-year-old woman at knifepoint in her apartment. Police allege he hid outside her apartment and put a knife to her throat when she returned home after work.

Aichi prefectural police say the same MO has been used in more than 90 attacks in the city. Uesugi has admitted to last September's attack, but was quoted by police as saying that he couldn't remember how many women he had assaulted.
