Police warn students in Okayama about dark part-time jobs

Police in Kurashiki City, Okayama Prefecture, conducted an awareness campaign at JR Nakasho Station to prevent young people from participating in "dark part-time jobs." The campaign targeted students and pupils commuting to nearby schools and universities, distributing flyers detailing the dangers of these illicit jobs, often associated with anonymous, fluid criminal groups known as "Tokuryu." Authorities emphasized that involvement can lead to continuous criminal activity without pay until arrest, urging youth to avoid such opportunities to protect their futures.
