The body of a Tokyo company president who had been missing since last week was found Tuesday in a mountain forest in Ibaraki Prefecture after his business partner guided police to the corpse.
Hideki Yashiro, 33, who was arrested on suspicion of attempted murder Monday, told investigators that he buried the body of Masanori Kinbara, 39, who owned a computer software company in Tokyo's Setagaya Ward, in the forest.
Kinbara had not been seen since Nov. 13.
