Trio beat sleeping Chiba octogenarian with crowbar, steal safe containing ¥200三人用撬棍殴打熟睡的千叶县八旬老人，抢走装有200日元的保险箱
Chiba police have arrested three men for allegedly breaking into a residence in Noda City, beating an elderly resident with a crowbar, and fleeing with a safe
CHIBA (TR) – Chiba Prefectural Police have arrested three men for allegedly breaking into a residence in Noda City, beating an elderly resident with a crowbar, and fleeing with a safe containing just 200 yen, reports Nippon News Network (Sep. 17).
The suspects, identified as Takuya Aisaka, Yusuke Yamamura, and a third accomplice, are accused of carrying out the violent home invasion in February of this year.
According to police, the trio broke into the home and targeted the sleeping residents. The men allegedly bound the hands and feet of a man in his 80s before striking him in the head with a crowbar-like object, inflicting injuries that required a week to heal. The suspects also assaulted the man’s wife before fleeing the scene with a safe containing a mere 200 yen in cash.
Investigators believe the three men were recruited to carry out the robbery after applying for yami-baito (dark part-time jobs). The perpetrators allegedly received their orders from an unidentified mastermind via a highly encrypted messaging app.
Police have not disclosed whether the suspects have admitted to the allegations.
Authorities suspect the incident is the work of an anonymous, loosely organized crime syndicate and are continuing their investigation to track down the mastermind who issued the directives.

千叶（TR）——据日本新闻网（9月17日）报道，千叶县警方逮捕了三名男子，他们涉嫌闯入野田市的一处住宅，用撬棍殴打一名老年居民，并抢走一个仅装有200日元的保险箱。
嫌疑人分别为相坂拓也、山村佑介和第三名同伙，他们被指控于今年二月实施了这起暴力入室抢劫案。
据警方称，这三人闯入民宅，袭击了正在熟睡的住户。他们捆绑了一名八十多岁老人的手脚，然后用类似撬棍的物体击打他的头部，导致老人受伤，一周后才痊愈。嫌疑人还殴打了老人的妻子，之后带着一个装有仅200日元现金的保险箱逃离现场。
调查人员认为，这三名男子是通过申请“暗黑兼职”（yami-baito）而被招募实施抢劫的。据称，他们通过一款高度加密的通讯软件，从一名身份不明的幕后主使那里接到了抢劫指令。
警方尚未透露嫌疑人是否承认这些指控。
当局怀疑这起事件是由一个匿名、松散的犯罪集团所为，并正在继续调查以追踪下达指令的幕后主使。
