Former director denies allegations of bribery in the midst of “nothing at all, main business” Funded by Tokyo tournament sponsor

Former director Takahashi of the Tokyo Organizing Committee for the Olympic and Paralympic Games has denied allegations of bribery to FNN’s interview on the issue that he received a large amount of funding from the organizer of the Games. Former Director Takahashi “(Are you accepting bribes) No. Main business, main business”, “(Do you speak to the Organizing Committee?) Because it is an Organizing Committee member” Haruyuki Takahashi, a former director of the Games Organizing Committee (78), is a company. It is believed that he had signed a consulting contract with the tournament sponsor “AOKI Holdings” and received at least 45 million yen. The directors of the Games Organizing Committee, as a deemed civil servant, are prohibited from accepting money from interested parties, and the Tokyo District Public Prosecutor’s Office is believed to be investigating whether the funding is a bribe. Under these circumstances, former director Takahashi strongly denied allegations of his bribery in an interview with FNN on the 23rd. FNN Prime Online https://www.fnn.jp/
