The Metropolitan Police Department arrested kabuki actor Ichikawa Ennosuke on Tuesday on suspicion of assisting the suicide of his mother, following the death of both of his parents last month.
Ennosuke, whose real name is Takahiko Kinoshi, was found collapsed in the basement of his house by his assistant on May 18.
His 76-year-old father, kabuki actor Ichikawa Danshiro, and 75-year-old mother Nobuko were found unconscious in the living room on the second floor.
