Three police officers in their 20s at the Kisarazu Police Station in Chiba Prefecture were sent to the prosecutor's office for driving under the influence of alcohol and riding in the same car after drinking alcohol together.
There was also a police officer who had drunk and driven multiple times, and the police took disciplinary dismissal and suspension from work.
The documents were sent to three people, a 24-year-old female police officer and two male police officers, aged 24 and 23, from Kisarazu Police Station.
According to the police, the three people are suspected of returning home in a drunk driving car after drinking at an izakaya and a karaoke store in November last year.
In addition, two of them, a female police officer and a 24-year-old male police officer, are suspected of having drunk driving in December last year.
In both cases, a female police officer was driving, and it was revealed that it was revealed when the female police officer did not go to work in December last year.
The Chiba Prefectural Police Headquarters dismissed two people who were confirmed to have drunk driving twice, and suspended the remaining male police officer for one month.
In response to the investigation, all three admitted to the charges and stated that they tried to call a driver, but the arrangement did not go well and they drove.
Chief Inspector General Mitsuhiro Kawaguchi of the Chiba Prefectural Police Headquarters said, "In response to the drinking accident in Yachimata City where two elementary school students died, while calling for the eradication of drunk driving, the police have caused such a scandal, and I deeply apologize to the citizens of the prefecture. I want to.
