12:18 on April 3 to extend `` Specified Conflict Designated Gangs '' to Yamaguchi Gumi and Kobe Yamaguchi Gumi

The Public Safety Commissions of six prefectures, including Hyogo, Osaka, and Aichi, have decided to extend the designation of "Specified Conflict Designated Gangs" to Yamaguchi Gumi and Kobe Yamaguchi Gumi, which are experiencing conflict. .

Last year, a former Yamaguchi-gumi member in Amagasaki City, Hyogo Prefecture, killed a divided Kobe Yamaguchi-gumi cadaver with an automatic rifle. In January, the Public Security Commission designated it as a "Specified Conflict-Specified Gang", which could strengthen its crackdown.

According to the police, no case has been identified as a "conflict" since then, but the public safety commissions of each prefecture have yet to say that the conflict is not over and that residents may be harmed. We decided to extend the designation for another three months from this month when it expires, and published it in the official gazette on the morning of the 3rd.

When designated as a "Specified Conflict Gangster", a "guard zone" is set in the area where the group's main base is located, and it is forbidden for the group to gather with more than 5 people or to enter the group office .

Police will continue to monitor two organizations, including crew trends.
