In the corruption case surrounding the Tokyo Olympics and Paralympics, it was newly discovered that there was a suspicion that a former director of the organizing committee was seeking funding from a company that manufactured and sold the official mascot stuffed animals. Haruyuki Takahashi (78), former director of the tournament organizing committee, was arrested for the third time last month on suspicion of receiving bribes from the advertising company “Daihiro”, and today is the deadline for detention. In addition, Takahashi received several million yen from the official mascot stuffed toy company “Sun Arrow” through an acquaintance’s consulting firm, and about 2,000 yen from the same acquaintance’s company from advertising giant “ADK Holdings”. I know that there was a funding of 10,000 yen. Subsequent interviews with related parties revealed that there is a suspicion that these funds were provided by Takahashi himself, asking the executives of the two companies. The Tokyo District Public Prosecutors Office is interviewing executives of the two companies and is believed to be conducting a final investigation into the funding. ▼TBS NEWS DIG official website https://newsdig.tbs.co.jp/ ▼Please subscribe to the channel! http://www.youtube.com/channel/UC6AG81pAkf6Lbi_1VC5NmPA?sub_confirmation=1 ▼Provide information here “TBS Insiders” https://www.tbs.co.jp/news_sp/tbs-insiders.html ▼Provide video Click here for “TBS Scoop Post” https://www.tbs.co.jp/news_sp/toukou.html
