Mr. Masahiro Nakai, who “refuted” the third-party panel, directly asked a female announcer whom he was close to… The “last request” that the TV station turned down.

Nakai pointed out the “allegations” in the investigation report.

Masahiro Nakai’s (52) “rebuttal” is causing quite a stir.

On May 12, Nakai’s lawyer submitted a written opinion to the third-party committee set up by Fuji Media Holdings. Nakai’s side stated that there was an “extremely serious problem” with the finding of “sexual violence” mentioned in the investigation report, and demanded the disclosure of evidence by May 26.

Mr. Nakai’s side claimed that the six-hour hearing hardly reflected the content of the report. Nakai’s side claims that the hearing did not reflect most of the content of the six-hour hearing, and also claims that “there was no evidence of violent or forceful sexual acts, which are commonly associated with the Japanese term ‘sexual violence. The report also claims that “no violent or forced sexual acts, which are commonly associated with the Japanese word ‘sexual violence,’ were found. In order to provide human rights relief to Mr. Nakai, we are demanding the disclosure of the hearing records, the criteria for recognizing sexual violence, and further evidentiary materials.

The report also refutes the statement in the third-party committee’s report that “Mr. Nakai did not agree to the lifting of the confidentiality obligation. The report states, “We had proposed the lifting of the confidentiality obligation, but the third-party committee responded that what took place in the secret room between the two of them was not the direct subject of the investigation. In other words, Mr. Nakai was willing to lift the confidentiality agreement. If this is true, it raises questions about the content of the third-party committee’s investigation itself.

On the other hand, a former Fuji Television announcer who suffered damage responded to an interview with “NEWS POST SEVEN,” saying, “I was directly contacted by the lawyer for the other party at the time, through my attorney, saying, ‘This one will not accept the release. Furthermore, he stated that what he had said about the authenticity of the investigation report had been included as it was, even down to the ending, and he expressed his feelings about Nakai’s claim, saying, “I am puzzled because it is different from what I had heard.

The “substance of a direct talk” to a female announcer at a key station.

It was not only the female victim who was surprised by Nakai’s rebuttal at this point in time. Even those within the Fuji TV station were puzzled, wondering “What in the world is going on at this point in time, more than a month after the report.

Nakai has remained silent since announcing his retirement from show business on January 23. The third-party committee’s press conference was held on March 31, but why the blowback at this point in time, more than a month later? A source in the entertainment industry revealed the other side of the story: “The TV stations, which had been our main source of support, didn’t budge.

After he announced his retirement, a veteran female announcer at one of the key stations received a phone call directly from Mr. Nakai. This female announcer was in a position equivalent to that of a department head and had influence within the station. Mr. Nakai appealed to the female announcer, asking her to correct the incorrect information that was appearing in the media, news, and SNS. Among other things, she insisted on the fact that it was a one-sided sexual assault without consent.

Later that day, a veteran employee of the station, who was consulted by the female announcer, visited Ms. Nakai at her home and held a meeting to discuss the matter. Mr. Nakai said, “I have no intention of returning to show business, and I want to restore my reputation as much as possible and live out the rest of my life quietly in my hometown. I want to recover my honor as much as possible and live out the rest of my life quietly in my hometown, so please give me a press conference to correct the misinformation,’ but the station ultimately refused his appeal.

The station staff asked him if he would not hold a press conference, but Mr. Nakai was mentally exhausted and in no condition to respond.

It is believed that Mr. Nakai made this “last request” to other stations as well. However, as a result, no TV stations agreed to the request. Mr. Nakai must have felt ashamed that he had contributed so much to the TV program. So, in the end, I think he decided to launch a counterattack like this one.

Of course, if there is a problem with the report of the third-party committee, it is a serious situation. It will be interesting to see how the situation moves forward in response to Mr. Nakai’s allegations.

It seems that the ripples created by the rebuttal report will not be quelled just yet.
