An emeritus professor at the University of Tokyo and others agenda to NHK about the fact that the NHK management committee paid close attention to Chairman Ueda at the time in connection with the NHK program that addressed the issue of inappropriate sales of Kanpo Life's insurance. We have filed a lawsuit in the Tokyo District Court requesting full disclosure of records.
About 100 people, including Professor Emeritus Satoshi Daigo of the University of Tokyo, filed a complaint, and on the 14th, the representative held a press conference at Kasumigaseki, Tokyo.
According to it, three years ago in 2018, the Japan Post Group made an error in the explanation about the editorial rights of the person in charge of the program in connection with the NHK program that addressed the issue of inappropriate sales of Japan Post Insurance. After making an offer to NHK's management committee, the management committee paid close attention to Chairman Ueda at the time, calling for a thorough governance system.
Professor Emeritus Daigo and his colleagues are requesting NHK to fully disclose the minutes of the management committee at that time, saying that it should be disclosed promptly, but it is unreasonable that it has not been realized.
We are also seeking compensation from NHK and Shunzo Morishita, chairman of the Management Committee.
At the press conference, Professor Emeritus Daigo said, "In an abnormal state that completely deviated from the premise of the information disclosure system, the illegal acts of Chairman Morishita have exceeded the limit. We will do our utmost to restore NHK to its original democratic form. I want to list it. "
Regarding the complaint, NHK commented, "We will check the content of the complaint and consider how to respond."
Chairman Morishita also commented, "We will check the content of the complaint and consider how to respond."
