On December 24, 2012, the Tokyo District Court heard the trial of Tamotsu Shiiki, 58, a former member of the House of Representatives, who was accused of sexually assaulting a first-year junior high school female student.

According to the indictment, on August 20, 2012, Tamotsu Shiiki sexually assaulted a female student at a karaoke bar in Kabukicho, Tokyo, kissing her on the lips and touching her breasts, knowing she was under 13 years old.

Shiiki had worked in the field of education for many years, including as a teacher at junior high and high schools and for the Board of Education. He used this experience to run for the 13th district of Chiba in the ’12 Lower House election from the former The Japan Innovation Party, and was elected for the first time after being resurrected on a proportional basis. He has served two terms in the House of Representatives.

Immediately after his arrest on September 9, 2012, he denied the charges, but at his first trial on December 5, 2012, he admitted the facts of the indictment, saying, “There is no doubt about it. He was dressed in a gray sweatshirt and a waist rope, and his thinning gray hair was nodding his head.

On December 24, ’24, he was dressed in a black suit and his hair, which had probably been re-dyed, was dark. Perhaps unable to bear the stares from the packed auditorium, Shiiki’s eyes behind his silver spectacles wandered and his eyebrows twitched nervously as he waited for the court to begin. Yet, when the questioning of the defendant began, even though he admitted the facts of the indictment, he repeatedly gave iridescent answers about his motives and memories of that time, as if he were a member of the National Diet.

According to the prosecution’s opening statement, Shiiki ran away from home and asked a female student who was next to him to have sexual intercourse with him for money, and bought lotion at the adult goods section of Don Quijote. He also entered a karaoke bar under a false name. When asked about his current state of mind at the beginning of his questioning of the accused, Shiiki replied, “I am repeating my remorse every day,

I have been repeating my remorse day after day. I am truly sorry. I can’t put it into one word.

He said he was sorry, but throughout his remarks in response to the prosecution’s questions, one could not help but wonder whether he was truly sorry or not.
