The Japan Sumo Association held an extraordinary board meeting at the Ryogoku Kokugikan in Tokyo on the 22nd and violated the guidelines for new coronavirus countermeasures created by the association, such as entering and exiting the Mahjong store in the first place, Tokitsuumi Masahiro (47 = former Tokitsuumi front)) Disciplinary action for the retirement council was discussed and decided. A 30% reduction in the retirement allowance has also been decided.

According to the compliance committee that conducted the research survey, the Tokizu-style teacher was in and out of the Mahjong store for five days during the first place period. It was also discovered that he had been to a sex shop and massage parlor in Tokyo. According to an association official, the Tokitsukaze stable allowed him to go in and out of the mahjong shop, but he denied that he had not played mahjong.

At the annual general meeting in December last year, the association issued a notice prohibiting going out in principle to the first place, Chiakiraku, except for outpatient treatment and manipulative treatment. In September last year, the Tokizu-style teacher traveled outside the prefecture and participated in a golf competition and was punished. The compliance committee said, “I can’t even see the attitude of remorse and conscience as a teacher, and it deserves harsh criticism,” and reported disciplinary action to the board for the second highest retirement recommendation after firing. In response, the board decided to get rid of him.

The details of the arrangement were transmitted directly to the Tokitsu style master by President Hakkaku (former Yokozuna Hokutoumi). He said he apologized when he asked, “Is there something?” The public relations manager of Shibatayama (former Yokozuna Ohnokuni) expressed his personal opinion: “I did not feel sorry for myself”, and the association was examined.

The sent retirement notice has been accepted. It is also decided that Mr. Magaki (formerly Tosayutaka Yutaka) with a room will take over the room and name the old man “Tokitsukaze”. The association has informed all members of the association to ensure compliance with the guidelines and norms of behavior ordered by the association.
