The problem of “seeing the cherry blossoms”, which should have been “finished”, is suddenly emerging. The first public secretary of former Prime Minister Shinzo Abe is expected to be prosecuted for violating the Law on the Regulation of Political Funds regarding the eve of “Sakura-mikai”. Will this problem, which resurfaced after Abe resigned the prime minister, have an easy-to-understand ending that would reduce people’s drinking of alcohol?

Is it the end of the story with “I’ll introduce a secretary and listen to Mr. Abe”?
Information is leaking strangely. On November 23, Yomiuri Shimbun and NHK reported that the Tokyo District Prosecutor’s Office was working on this issue. Media companies have followed suit, and now the media reports for each company are nearly complete.
(1) Mr. Abe suffered a shortfall in membership fees collected from participants on the eve of the festival.MakeupAnd paid the hotel.
(2) Mr. Abe’s first public secretary understood that the balance should be indicated in the political fund balance report.
③ The first public secretary is filed for violating the Law of Regulation of Political Funds (not stated). It is expected to be a short trial.
④ The Tokyo District Prosecutor’s Office requested Mr. Abe’s voluntary hearing. Abe also intends to respond.
⑤ Mr. Abe himself has no criminal responsibility.
That’s. It is rare that Mr. Abe was denied a case even before he himself interviewed. In short, the Tokyo District Prosecutor’s Office will set up a secretary as an excuse and listen to Mr. Abe once to close the curtain. If so, you can see what to drop.
The core is in the “lie” repeated by Abe
There seems to be no turbulence in the development of the research, but what will be noticed in the future is rather the “political” stage. During his tenure as Prime Minister, Abe claimed that he had “no compensation” other than the membership fee (5,000 yen) paid by those attending the “Eve Festival”. He has repeatedly complained that he did not write on the income and expense report because he had no income or expenses as a sponsor.
However, the investigation by the Tokyo District Attorney’s Office completely broke that premise. It became clear that Mr. Abe was making up for it. This means that there will be a balance, so it will need to be included in the Political Funds Balance Report. And he knew the first public secretary should have mentioned it.
Abe had repeatedly replied that he would cover the lie with the lie. Did Mr. Abe know that a series of answers was a lie? That is the biggest focus. This is an issue that is discussed within the framework of “politics”.
