Japanese Prime Minister Takaichi Faces Complaint Over Alleged Illegal Acceptance of Corporate Donations Japanese Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi is facing a criminal complaint for allegedly accepting an illegal corporate donation of ¥10 million (USD 64,400), exceeding the legal limit of ¥7.5 million. The case is linked to the ongoing scandal within the Liberal Democratic Party (LDP), in which party factions allegedly funneled off-the-books funds back to lawmakers. Seven of Takaichi’s senior appointees are reportedly connected to the scandal, and critics argue that her stance demonstrates little appetite for meaningful reform.
