In a trial in which residents complained that it was illegal for the city to purchase for 57.8 billion yen while knowing that the land of Tokyo Toyosu Market was contaminated with soil, the Tokyo High Court in the second trial dismissed the complaint following the first trial. It was.

Residents of Tokyo over the fact that the city purchased the land of Toyosu Market from Tokyo Gas for more than 57.8 billion yen in 2011, "It is illegal to pay a large amount of money while knowing the fact of soil contamination."

In the decision of the second trial on the 9th, Judge Junichi Kitazawa of the Tokyo High Court said, "The capital has no choice but to choose Toyosu as the relocation destination, and the cost of soil pollution countermeasures paid by Tokyo Gas etc. was kept relatively low and concessions were made. It was unavoidable. It cannot be said that the land acquisition price was significantly different from the normal price. "
