Don't know how the law works in Japan, but public streets are well...public spaces. In most places you need to have a reasonable expectation of privacy before being able to use this defense. Also this is an effective way to name and shame people against acting in such a way in public if you wish to do so. Some would argue that if you wish to avoid such a situation you should hold your drink better. Though that could just be passing the blame on the victim. Note that this is not my personal opinion on the matter.
