Japanese blogger stabbed to death after giving
speech on handling online disputes:


"A well-known Japanese blogger and expert on the “dark web” was stabbed to death
by an internet user he had clashed with online shortly after delivering a lecture on
how to manage online disputes.

Kenichiro Okamoto was reportedly followed to the toilets in the lecture centre in the
Chuo district of Fukuoka city, in south-west Japan, at around 8pm on Sunday evening.

Mr Okamoto, a 41-year-old employee of a cyber security consultancy who was better
known by his online name Hagex, was found with multiple stab wounds to his chest
and neck. He was confirmed dead at a local hospital a short while later.

According to national broadcaster NHK, a man in his 40s surrendered to police about
three hours later, telling officers that he “hated” Okamoto and adding: “I am
responsible for the murder in Chuo Ward”."
