In a corruption case involving the Tokyo Olympics and Paralympics, regarding the advisory contract that ADK Holdings signed with a former board member, a former ADK executive said, “I thought it was a contract related to the Olympics.” I understand that you have made a confession. Former ADK president Shinichi Ueno, 68, and three others allegedly bribed Haruyuki Takahashi, 78, a former director of the organizing committee of the Tokyo 2020 Games, to provide benefits for ADK in connection with the sponsorship contract for the Tokyo Olympics. As a result, he was arrested by the Tokyo District Public Prosecutors Office. The approximately 47 million yen provided by the Special Investigation Department as a bribe includes the compensation for the consulting contract that ADK signed with Takahashi, but according to people involved, Ueno said, So, there is no recognition of bribery,” he denies the charges. However, Shigeharu Hisamatsu, 63, a former managing director of ADK, told the special investigation department, “When I saw Takahashi’s name, I felt that it was a contract related to the Olympics.” I learned something new from the interview. It is possible that the purpose was to make a bribe-like payment under the guise of a normal contract, and it is believed that the Special Investigation Department will proceed to clarify the actual situation. ▼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
