The arrest came after he was judged sufficiently recovered from his own burn injuries to face scrutiny. The blaze at the animation production studio killed 36 people and injured another 33.

Aoba was found near the scene and apparently has admitted to setting the fire. “There is no mistake,” the police quoted him as saying.
