Love Letter actress Miho Nakayama’s death ruled an accident, police and her agency say
No foul play in death of Japanese singer and actress, 54, known for her role in hit 1995 romance, who was found in her bathtub at Tokyo home
The death of Japanese actress and singer Miho Nakayama, who was found in her bathtub last week, has been ruled an accident, her agency says.
Police confirmed there is no suspicion of foul play in the death of the 54-year-old, who was known for her role in the acclaimed 1995 romantic film Love Letter and had a string of hit J-pop songs in the 1980s and 1990s.
“It was found that the cause of her death was due to an unexpected accident that occurred while bathing,” the agency said via the actress’ website.
The police said a representative of her agency and an acquaintance visited her home after she failed to arrive for an appointment on December 6.
