Kanri Kawai, 150 million yen reported in a weekly magazine "Illegal" January 23 12:02

A member of the Liberal Democratic Party, Kanri Kawai, reported in a weekly magazine that a total of 150 million yen had been transferred from her party's headquarters to her husband's political party branch before her first election last year in the Upper House election. He said, "It is not illegal."

Prior to the election of the House of Councilors in July last year, which was elected last week, LDP Kawai Kanri, a member of the Liberal Democratic Party's House of Representatives, joined the political party branch of the former Justice Minister Katsuyuki Kawai, before the House of Councilors election last July. It was reported that a total of 150 million yen had been transferred.

Kanri Kawai acknowledged the reporters on the 23rd as "I'm grateful," but said "it's not illegal."

In the Upper House election, Mr. Kawai was reported in a weekly Bunshun last October that his camp paid a so-called Miss Campaign campaigner more than the provisions of the law. The secretary is listening to the situation.
