99年主婦殺害 遺族が賠償求め提訴 - Yahoo!ニュース

This page covers a lawsuit filed by the husband of a housewife killed in Nagoya in 1999. The victim's husband, Satoru Takawa (69), has sued Kumiko Yasufuku (69), who is accused of murder, for damages at the Nagoya District Court. Over 26 years have passed since the crime, creating a legal challenge regarding the statute of limitations. The key issue is whether the civil lawsuit can overcome the 20-year legal time limit for damages claims under Japanese civil law. The family argues that dismissing the case would contradict justice and seeks compensation.
