Model Kentaro Nakamura was arrested on Thursday for suspected use of cocaine. On May 6, he and three others were questioned in Roppongi by an officer from Tokyo's Azabu district, and urine samples were taken. The samples later tested positive for cocaine, and an arrest warrant was issued.

On Thursday, Nakamura stated that he had no recollection of using the drug.

It was recently announced that Nakamura and singer Rina Chinen got divorced on March 15. Her agency had no comment on the arrest.
