A Tokyo teenager nabbed for posting an online death threat to Agnes Chan said he couldn't stomach what he described as the hypocrisy of the former pop star, known for her wealthy lifestyle and benevolent activities, according to police.
Shibuya Police Station sources said the 15-year-old junior high school student, whose name was withheld because he is a minor, admitted to allegations that he threatened the 60-year-old singer on social media. They quoted him as saying he "couldn't stand seeing her rolling in luxury while promoting a spirit of charity."
"I never thought it would get so much public attention," the teen was also quoted as saying.
