Panties aren’t even safe from cops in Japan.

On Friday (Oct. 6) Tokyo Metropolitan Police revealed that they had both dismissed and filed charges of breaking-and-entering and theft against a police officer who is suspected of having stolen potentially over 100 pairs of women’s underwear over the span of three years.

According to police, on August 26 at around 11:30 p.m., the dismissed 29-year-old sergeant, who belonged to the 9th riot squad, used a window to enter the first floor residence of a woman in Tokyo’s Edogawa Ward and stole an unknowm number of women’s underwear.

About an hour later the sergeant returned to the residence, which also happened to be near the officer’s own residence, and attempted to enter it once again through the same window he had used earlier. However, as the officer was attempting to do this he was spotted by a male neighbor and fled the scene. The sergeant was apprehended by police and arrested on the spot about 150 meters away from the scene of the crime.

When asked why he had returned to the victim’s residence the police officer reportedly told police “I wanted to see what the woman [whose underwear I stole] looked like.” The officer also admitted to having been responsible for about 20 other similar incidents, the earliest of which dates back to the summer of 2014.

Tokyo police released the sergeant on August 29 and began investigating the matter.

On October 6 police filed charges for both the Augst 26 incident and a separate one, which occurred in December of 2015 also in Edogawa Ward.

Hiroki Tsutsui of the Police Affairs Department was quoted as saying “This is something inexcusable for a member of the police force. We will take actions to make sure this does not happen again.”
