``I haven't met at the parliament house I was told by interviews that there was a suspicion that he was working. The Tokyo District Public Prosecutor's Office is in the process of clarifying the actual situation of a series of acquisitions.
Judge Akimoto (48), a member of the House of Representatives, asked the former adviser of the Chinese company on the bribery side to give a witness in court, as a reward for the corruption case of the IR/integrated resort facility that was indicted by himself. On the 20th, he was arrested by the Tokyo District Public Prosecutor's Office on the suspicion of the acquisition of witnesses who violated the organized crime punishment law for attempting to give cash.
Representative Akimoto was charged with bribery worth about 7.6 million yen, but he acknowledged that Akimoto gave 3 million yen in cash at the House of Representatives in September three years ago. Interviews with related parties revealed that there was a suspicion that the bribery had been asked to turn down in the trial.
Representative Akimoto has a policy of completely denying bribes at the parliamentary hall in court, and has conspired with the supporter company officers to encourage the bribery side to say, "I want to testify that I have not met at the parliamentary hall." There is suspicion.
It seems that the Tokusou Department is promoting the elucidation of the fact that Representative Akimoto took the lead in the acquisition process in order to take advantage of his own case.
Akimoto denies the charges that he had no knowledge of the acquisition of witnesses when he interviewed NHK before his arrest.
