Iseya Yusuke (44), an actor who was arrested on suspicion of violating the Cannabis Control Law for possession, admitted to the marijuana found in his home, at first telling police that he won’t speak until his lawyer arrived but then told the police “I had marijuana for myself to smoke”. At his home, around 500 wrapping paper for marijuana was found at his home.
But now more details are coming out as an entertainment executive and a women he dated are now talking in public about the darkside of Iseya.
One executive told Sponnichi Annex, “He kept violently attacking people repeatedly, and sometimes it developed into trouble”.
Two women told Sports Nippon, who were victims of domestic violence caused by Iseya.
One model said, “I was seriously injured with a depressed facial fracture. This was about 10 years ago. My body was full of bruises in a daily basis because he kept hitting and kicking me. It was in areas that could be hidden while wearing clothes, so there was no obstacles of working”.
“I had escaped abroad, but each time I was brought back by Iseya”
Another female said, “When my face had a fracture, my face was bad that I had to wear an eye patch. I couldn’t work as a model anymore, so I had to leave my agency”. The woman said that Iseya paid millions of yen in medical treatment and then the relationship ended.
Another model said she was shot by an air gun indoors. The model said, “Iseya was famous for getting out of hand and then gets his hand unstuck. After the violence, he would turn around and then gently touch you when you were in tears. At a party I attended last year, I witness him chewing with a lot of high tension, and there were rumors that he was doing drugs”.
Division 5 is investigating other connections to illegal drugs.There was a female model who was arrested early last year for possession of illegal drugs. The woman also used marijuana and cocaine. Invetigators are looking into if they received their drugs from the same network. Because there are hairstylists and entertainment professionals in Iseya’s network who are suspected of illegal drug use, there may be more arrests of those involved in the entertainment world.
In related news, it was announced on September 9th that Iseya will be resigning from his position at REBIRTH PROJECT, a company which he established in 2008 to promote social activities in fields including water, energy, education and also to provide clothing, food and shelter.
