Japan PM Accused of Violating Political Funds Control Law

26 Giugno 2026

Tokyo, June 26 (Jiji Press)–Japanese Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi has been accused of making false statements in her political organizations’ funds reports. Hiroshi Kamiwaki, a professor at Kobe Gakuin University, filed a criminal complaint with public prosecutors on June 3, accusing Takaichi of violating the political funds control law. Kamiwaki says that though funds reports from two Takaichi-led political organizations stated that they received donations of 2.1 million yen in total from a corporate executive in 2021 and 2022, the money was actually paid for tickets to political fundraising parties. The complaint also targets a secretary to Takaichi who is responsible for accounting at the political organizations. END [Copyright The Jiji Press, Ltd.]
