Public prosecutor voluntarily listens to Mr. and Mrs. Kawai Election violation case May 9 11:10
An interview with the people involved in the voluntary hearing of the situation by Representative Lori Kasai and his husband, Katsuyuki Kawai, this month during the large-scale holidays of the Hiroshima Prosecutor's Office due to an election breach by the Liberal Democratic Party's House of Representatives Senri Kawai. I understand. Apparently, he requested an explanation about the facts and purpose of the cash donation to the local councilors.
Regarding the election of the House of Councilors in July last year, which was elected by Senri Kawai for the first time, it seems that the Hiroshima Prosecutor's Office was suspected that the funds of the camp were used for the acquisition, and several prefectural members and city councilors were suspected of violating the Public Offices Election Law. We are proceeding with the investigation, such as searching for related parties.
In this case, at least more than 10 prefectural and city council members explained that they received cash of 50,000 to 300,000 yen from their husband, former Minister of Justice Katsuyuki Kawai and Representative Kaori, to arbitrary investigations by the prosecution. It was clear that the prosecution had asked the circumstances voluntarily from Mr. and Mrs. Kawai this month during the long holiday, and it was revealed by interviews with the people concerned.
The prosecutor's office heard several times from Mr. and Mrs. Kawai in March this time in connection with the case in which the public secretary of Representatives Satoshi was charged with paying Miss Uguis a remuneration exceeding the law. It seems that the prosecution has requested a new explanation this time about the facts and purpose of the provision of cash to local legislators.
Former Minister Kawai's office said on the 6th of last month, "We are currently investigating the parties concerned and will refrain from commenting at this time."
