YOKOHAMA -- A 27-year-old woman was arrested on suspicion of inflicting injury resulting in the death of her 2-year-old son at their home in Fujisawa, Kanagawa Prefecture, police said.

The Kanagawa prefectural police believe that Mei Tashiro repeatedly abused her son, Sora, who had multiple bruises on his body.

Tashiro, whose occupation is unknown, is suspected of assaulting Sora around April 22 last year, resulting in his death the following day from an intracranial injury due to a head contusion, according to the police.
