A. Arai, J. Takahashi, Y. Takagi, S. Honda, and K. Morihana (Univ. of Hyogo)
report on behalf of the Nayuta team and the OISTER collaboration:

We observed the field of GRB 140705A (Stamatikos et al., GCNC 16520)
with Nishiharima Infrared Camera (NIC) attached to the Nayuta 2-m
telescope at the Nishi-Harima Astronomical Observatory.

The observations were conducted on 2014-07-05 at 12:53:36 -- 13:06:20 UT.
We did not find any new point source within the enhanced XRT circle
(Osborne et al., GCNC 16521) in all three bands.

Three sigma upper limits of the object are listed below.
We used 2MASS catalog for flux calibration.
