The Chamber of Councilors Anri Kawai (47), who was convicted by the Tokyo District Court on 21 last month, has decided to resign as a member of the Liberal Democratic Party in the case of violation of the Election of Public Offices Law by the Hiroshima constituency. A request for resignation will be submitted to the Chairman of the House of Councilors, Akiko Santō, on the 3rd, and is expected to be approved by the House of Councilors Plenary. Several officials said yesterday.

The by-elections of the Hiroshima House of Councilors are scheduled for April 25, as are the Hokkaido House of Representatives District 2 and the Nagano House of Council constituency. If you are found guilty, you will be invalidated and lose your job. Before that, he decided to decide his own advance and retreat.

Senator Anri was accused of violating the Public Office Election Law (acquisition, previous exercise) in the first election of the Upper House. The unemployment cases are: (1) Self-convicted (2) Katsuyuki Kawai, a former Justice Minister who was indicted at the same time (57) = Liberal Democratic Party = guilty conviction system (3) Confirmed conviction system by the public secretary There were three types of application. The deadline for Senator Anri’s own appeal is approaching the 4th of this month.
