54 year old Naoto Higashiya from Kaga city of Ishikawa was arrested for forcing his mother in her 70's (78 in some report) to commit suicide.
He placed a knife in front of her telling her "please die".
His mother later hanged herself.
The incident was discovered when he called in his company saying "I need a day off because my mother just hanged herself."
He admitted to the allegations, saying he was dissatisfied with his mother.
