The twitter that revealed and confirmed

Following this viral Twitter post, Taira Kutsumi immediately quits from his “Japanese in Myanmar” social group (not confirmed, someone posted this screenshot on Twitter)

This is supposedly an email from Taira Kutsumi to the Yangon Nihonjin Kai Group ヤンゴン日本人会 organizer that he will be quitting.

Email reads

I, Sumitomo worker Taira Kutsumi groped a women’s breast on the Yamanote Line
This video is going viral on Twitter
I will be stepping down from the Japanese People Gathering

The wording seems too strange that we suspect this to be fake.

Taira Kutsumi and his wife, Yuki Kutsumi both deleted all their social media existance (facebook/linkedin). Is this admitting guilt?

We believe in innocent until proven guilty, but the video is pretty damming to his case unless he has a twin brother. But, would an innocent person go into hiding when they are ousted?
