Megumi Igarashi, who calls herself Rokudenashiko (good-for-nothing girl), announced Tuesday online that she will wed vocalist and guitarist Mike Scott of The Waterboys, a British folk rock outfit.

Igarashi is currently on trial for obscenity.

¡°I would like to thank the police from the bottom of my heart for this relationship, because it all started when news about my arrest went viral,¡± she tweeted on Thursday. ¡°For my wedding ceremony, I would like to invite the prosecutors who indicted me, as well as the police.¡±

In an email, Igarashi explained that?Scott had contacted her in?September 2015. He had seen news about her ordeal and sent an email of encouragement.

¡°Since then he¡¯d been supporting my cause,¡± she wrote. ¡°We met in person in February 2016. He¡¯d come to Tokyo and we started dating during his 10 day-trip here. Since then, he¡¯s come to Japan and I¡¯ve gone to Ireland, and our relationship became more serious.¡±

Igarashi says she expects their home base will be in Ireland, where Scott lives now.

Igarashi was arrested in July 2014 for distributing ¡°obscene¡± objects, namely sets of digital data comprising 3-D scans of her vagina. The data was suitable for output on a 3-D printer.

The scans were part of a larger online plan to raise money to build a kayak modeled on her vagina.?She was released several days later but was indicted again in December 2014 for ¡°displaying obscene materials publicly.¡±

Prosecutors have asked the Tokyo District Court for a fine of ?800,000, while Igarashi insists her art is not obscene.

The court is expected to hand down a ruling on the case on May 9.

Igarashi?said aside from preparing for her book tour for the English edition of ¡°What is Obscenity?,¡± she¡¯s also currently involved in a?film about her?trial that will air at the post-verdict conference presented by legal defense group.
