Well they caught the monkey. Phew!! I was expect more monkey attacks. Apparently they are planning to "refrain from showing the monkey to the public". I wonder if that is a euphemism for euthanasia?

Biting monkey escapes from her cage : National : DAILY YOMIURI ONLINE (The Daily Yomiuri)

Okay, so you have a monkey in a park. Due to a careless worker it escapes. This monkey goes on to attack 120 people before it finally gets captured. What do you do? Do you destroy the monkey and test it for rabies? No, you put it in a cage in another town, so that it can escape again. Why? Turns out the monkey has friends in high places, it apparently helped the mayor get elected.
