The US military has imposed a curfew on its troops in Okinawa, Japan, over the alleged rape of a teenager by a US marine and other instances of misconduct.
According to BBC reports, Staff Sergeant, Tyrone Hadnott was arrested for allegedly raping a 14 year old girl in his car last week.
According to official reports, two more US troops were arrested for drunk driving and trespassing last weekend.
The US Commander in Okinawa, Lieutenant-General Richard Zilmer said active duty by the troops would be limited, as the curfew should give the troops time to reflect on their behaviour.
Japan\'s top government spokesman accused the US military of a lack of discipline.
