Here is my translation of Livedoor CEO Takafumi Horie's final post yesterday afternoon , just before being arrested, for those who are interested. I have posted the original Japanese as well.

Yesterday I was in meetings and checking email until late in the evening about how to respond to our current situation. Consequently, I didn't wake until late. Suddenly I recieved about 10 calls on my cellphone from a reporter from Asahi TV's "Sunday Project" show (I don't how they got my number) telling me to appear on their live broadcast. The call had a threatening manner about it and they insinuated that they already announced that I would be on the show. This is the kind of thing the mass media do... plus the huge number of troublemaking fabricated stories that have to be refuted one by one.
Obviously we are being investigated (clearly as there is a search warrant outstanding, which I can't get a copy of and don't fully remember). Also I don't fully remember 100% of the details regarding the case, I also don't know who or where exactly the information is that is being reported in the media comes from, so it is impossible for me to comment. That is the current situation.
昨日夜遅くまで対策会議、およびメールチェック、仕事などを行っていたので、朝おきるのは遅かったのですが、なぜかテレビ朝日のサンデープロジェクトの人が、私の携帯電話番号をどこからか入手してきて、突然、10回以上もテレビに電話で生出演しろと（放送で告知しているからと）半ば脅迫めいた電話をかけてきました・・・・。マスコミって何でもありなんですね・・・。いちいち反論するのも困るくらい捏造記事も相変わらず多いですし・・・。疑いをかけられている（と明確にわかる強制捜査時の捜査令状、これはもらえないしコピーもとらせてもらえないので内容は100%覚えていませんが）件につきましては私は身に覚えがないですし、報道されている件は誰がどこでどう調べたのかもわからないような代物ですので、なんともコメントのしようがありません。現状はこんな状態です。
