Tokyo police arrested the president and two other former executives of the failed cattle outfit Agura Bokujo on June 18 for allegedly soliciting investors based on misleading information before the operation went under in 2011.

Former President Kumiko Mikajiri, 69, and the two former executives were arrested in connection with a cattle-breeding scheme affecting about 73,000 investors nationwide.

Investigative sources said the firm gave investors false information, including inflating the number of cattle raised at the farm. (Kyodo)
