OSAKA, May 16 (News On Japan) –
Two 16-year-old women have been referred to prosecutors on suspicion of obstructing enterprise operations after ingesting tea straight from a shared pitcher at a Sukiya beef bowl restaurant in Osaka.
According to investigative sources, the incident occurred in February at a Sukiya department in Chuo Ward, Osaka. The women allegedly positioned their mouths straight on a tabletop pitcher used for communal tea and drank from it, prompting the restaurant to scrub the pitcher and thereby interfering with operations.
A video capturing the act was posted on social media, which led police to establish the women by the footage and different info.
A Sukiya spokesperson commented, “We cannot tolerate behavior that compromises the safety and enjoyment of our customers. We will respond firmly to such disruptive acts.”
