TOKYO, Reuters. Ayumi Hamasaki (30), the popular leader of Japanese music and Asian fashion scene is one of the main names which appeared in an massive anti-drug operation recently launched by the Tokyo Metropolitan Police.
The Japanese entertainment world is becoming an increasingly scene for for drug events.
Many celebrities are now connected to the "drug-related list" managed by the Criminal Investigation Bureau (CIB), and even pop queen Ayumi Hamasaki is being investigated. Allegedly the police offers Hamasaki special attention, this as a result of her close friendship with "PEACH JOHN" lingerie company's president Noguchi Mika, where a close common friend was recently arrested in his apartment, which he and his mistress rented from Noguchi .
According to network intelligence the mistress died of a overdose a few days ago, in the Tokyo apartment. For this, the police arrested the boyfriend and started an investigation and depth tracking of clues from Hamasaki's past and find out her background. Had heard blasting thin, and underwear, and her boyfriend dating and other acts of disorder, so that the Japanese police suspect were caused by smoking drug that has caused all kinds of bizarre behavior.
By the end of August the Avex Group finished their finall "a-nation" activities. Hamasaki were also present at the event, but because she and Mika Noguchi is in the focus of the sensitive topic, the recording company decided to remove her percent on TV pictures. This cast doubt on whether a novelty factor, people at at event feelt that "things appeared strange."
The police will take a big investigation into the near future.

The first article, http://news.livedoor.com/article/detail/4328830/, refers to Ayumi wanting to move into Noriko Sakai's apartment. It asks why is she so interested in living in the place of a criminal. They speculate it is because Noriko's place is more remote and therefore less paparrazzi, but it also says that the apartment building is known for drug activity. So why would she want to move there, etc etc.
It says that Oshio (a talent that is associated with Avex) who was arrested recently on drug charges is connected to Ayumi via Mika John. Oshio held a drug party in which one person overdosed and died. This drug party was held at a room in Roppongi Hills that is owned by Mika John. Mika apparently gives this room to her friends to have parties in. Anyone associated with Mika is coming under suspicion. So what the article asks is since Ayu and Mika are so close, how can Ayu not know that her best friend is involved with drugs?
It says that because of this, not much footage from A-nation was released for Ayu compared to previous years and most news articles focused on Goto Maki and Tetsuya Komuro.
The two recent celebrity drug busts of Oshio and Noriko (on the same day) have resulted in several entertainment figures coming under suspicion and police apparently have information that is pointing them towards certain people.
As for the validity of either article: my boyfriend says they are still considered rumor level, but the second article is at least from a very famous Japanese magazine - not some place just totally random..
