The Supreme Court issued an apology directly to the bereaved families of the runaway accident that occurred in Kameoka City, Kyoto Prefecture on June 6. The bereaved family asked for all records of incidents that claimed human lives.
In this accident, the Supreme Court investigation revealed that the manager in charge of the Kyoto Family Court believed that records could only be kept for serious cases such as murder and arson, and proceeded with the disposal procedure without consulting the director. Ms. Nakae demanded that all records that took human lives be kept, and that the Bereaved families be consulted on how records should be preserved and destroyed.
