  • Japan's Fuji Television said it will open an investigation into a high-profile sex scandal linked to one of the country's top celebrities

The Japanese television network TBS has announced it will conduct an independent investigation into allegations of sexual abuse by one of its former executives, following a lawsuit filed by a woman who claims she was repeatedly assaulted by him over a period of about 15 years starting in 2005. The woman, who worked at a company affiliated with TBS, alleges that the executive, who was in a position of power, used his influence to coerce her into sexual acts. The lawsuit also names TBS and its affiliated company as defendants, accusing them of negligence in not preventing the abuse despite being aware of the executive's behavior. TBS has expressed regret over the incident and committed to a thorough investigation to address the allegations and prevent future occurrences.
