Background
17 years prior to the current timeline, Tsutomu Akai was involved in the double murder of Kohji Haneda and Amanda Hughes. What happened to him during and after the incident is currently unknown. Tsutomu was believed to be deceased by his family, however, his body was never found. It was his involvement with the murder case that prompted his son Shuichi to join the FBI in order to investigate what happened to him, and his apparent death led Shuichi to seek vengeance against those responsible.
Before his apparent death, Tsutomu sends his wife a message telling her that he had made enemies with "horrible people," asking her to take their children to Japan, and to think of him as someone who no longer existed. Sometime after his daughter Masumi was born, so he never got to know her.
Personality
Appearance
Tsutomu Akai looks quite similar to his second son, Shukichi, having roughly the same hairstyle and facial design; unlike his son, Tsutomu did not appear to shave his facial hair regularly. In Mary's memory, he wore a large jacket, a loose white tie, and a cap which, along with his hair, concealed part of his face.

The Clenched Scissors and the Clipped Letters (Manga: 949; Anime: TBA)

A Chance Meeting at the Beach (Manga: 972-974; Anime: TBA)
While Mary and Shuichi believe him dead, Tsutomu's body was never found.
When Shuichi speaks of being "infected by the disease called curiosity," Mary is immediately reminded of Tsutomu. Shukichi is also reminded of Tsutomu when Mary tells Shuichi to "purge the fog that covers the truth."
Speculation
So far, the amount of information on the patriarch of the Akai family is very vague. 17 years ago, he was involved in some way with the murders of Kohji Haneda and Amanda Hughes. During which, or shortly after, he became an enemy of "horrible people," prompting him to message his family that they should move to the safety of Japan. From this point on, the father is thought of as dead, however a body was never discovered.
Fan Speculation
Some fan theories have been floating around about how, specifically, he was connected to the Kohji case, as well as whether he's truly dead or not.

Trivia
- His name was first revealed via Shukichi's marriage registration in Volume 89. However, at the time, the exact pronunciation of the name was unknown.
- The kanji in his name, 務武, can also be read as "Zumu". This is a possible reference to Zeon Zum Deikun (ジオン・ズム・ダイクン Jion Zumu Daikun), the father of Char Aznable.
