Megumi Igarashi, who calls herself Rokudenashiko (good-for-nothing girl), announced Tuesday online that she will wed vocalist and guitarist Mike Scott of The Waterboys, a British folk rock outfit.
Igarashi is currently on trial for obscenity.
"I would like to thank the police from the bottom of my heart for this relationship, because it all started when news about my arrest went viral," she tweeted on Thursday. "For my wedding ceremony, I would like to invite the prosecutors who indicted me, as well as the police."
