An investigation by a major Japanese talent agency into sexual abuse allegations against its founder won’t address monetary or criminality questions but rather aims to prevent such cases in the future, the lead investigator said Monday.

Since then, others have come forward, including Kauan Okamoto, who spoke in April at the Foreign Correspondents Club in Tokyo.

According to the allegations, Kitagawa asked fledgling singers and dancers to stay at his luxury home. When he told one of them to go to bed early, everyone knew “it was your turn,” Okamoto said. Those “complicit in these crimes will remain in their positions, like nothing has happened. Inexcusable. Accountability must be called for. Simply saying we won’t do it again makes a mockery of sexual abuse legislation,” she said.Article contentHayashi also brushed off a question about Chief Executive Julie Keiko Fujishima’s apparent denial of the allegations. What the company decides to do with the panel’s findings is up to the company, he said.
