Japanese Man Arrested For Possession Of Guns Created With 3D Printer[Video]
A 27 year old Japanese man, Yoshitomo Imura, was arrested
for making handguns with a 3-D printer. The police said that two of the five
guns recovered were capable of firing. No bullets were discovered at the
Yoshitomo's home in Kawasaki, south Tokyo.
Imura who is an employee of Shonan Institute of Technology
in Fujisawa, bought the commercial 3D printer online for ¥60,000.
“I can’t complain about the arrest if the police regard them
as real guns,” he reportedly said.
The police launched an investigation earlier this year after
Imura posted a video online where he demonstrated about the guns which he
claimed he made himself.
