Cab driver held for drugging women A taxi driver who got a sexual thrill out of watching women desperate to urinate has been arrested for allegedly feeding passengers snacks laced with diuretics, police said Thursday.
Toshihiko Nishi, 41, lured women into long rides in his cab, including at least one case when he offered a half-price fare, and then plied them with crackers covered in a substance that would make them need to urinate.
Police who raided the man’s home said they found videos that Nishi said were from a security camera inside the cab and showed around 50 women wetting themselves on his back seat.
One alleged victim told police she got into Nishi’s taxi in Osaka last October and was given small paper cup containing water biscuits.
Shortly after eating the snack, she began to feel the urge to urinate. But when she told the driver to let her out so she could relieve herself, he refused and instead passed back an absorbent sheet on which he encouraged her to urinate.
“I got excited by watching women trying to fight the urge to urinate,” the driver told investigators, adding he had “bought diuretics over the Internet, and crushed them to mix with crackers.”
Nishi has been arrested on suspicion of committing a violent act, police said.
