Asahi is reporting that former Nova President Nozomu Sahashi has been arrested on charges of embezzlement, after having initially been brought in for voluntary questioning on Tuesday morning.

It was just a year and a week ago that the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry slapped Nova with a six month ban on signing up customers to long-term contracts.

More details to follow as they become available - this post will be updated.

As letsjapan.org is following these events in more detail, we recommend anyone following the case to head over there to read up.
