Amnesty associated with succession to the throne 550,000 expected 15:15 on October 15
Regarding amnesty being considered for implementation following the succession of the throne, the government reported at the LDP's general affairs meeting that the size is expected to be approximately 550,000 and that it will be decided at a cabinet meeting this week.
The pardon is not based on the proceedings of the trial, but the effect of the conviction is lost or the qualification that has been lost is restored, and the government is considering implementation along with the succession of the throne.
According to the Liberal Democratic Party's chairman, Mr. Suzuki, who was revealed at a press conference, the size of the pardon was estimated to be about 550,000 at the party's general meeting held by Deputy Secretary Nishimura on the 15th. I reported that I wanted to make a decision at the Cabinet.
If amnesty is implemented, it will be the first time in 26 years since 1993 when the Emperor and Empress were married.
