A Ugandan weightlifter has been found four days after he disappeared from an Olympic training camp in Japan leaving a note saying he wanted to find work, police said Tuesday.

The disappearance of Julius Ssekitoleko came at a time of high public concern over Coronavirus risks as thousands of foreigners arrive for the Games. "Today, the man was found in Mie prefecture with no injuries and no involvement in any crime," an Osaka police official told AFP.
