大川原冤罪遺族が提訴、裁判官の責任問う　「保釈却下は違法だった」：朝日新聞

This page reports on a lawsuit related to the Okawara Kasei miscarriage of justice case. The bereaved family of a former company advisor who died in custody is suing the state for approximately 170 million yen, claiming that 37 judges' decisions to order arrest and detention, and deny bail requests, were illegal. The advisor was arrested in March 2020 and died in February 2021 after eight bail requests were rejected. While the Tokyo High Court acknowledged the illegality of the investigation last May, the court has not verified the judges' decisions on arrest, detention, and bail denial. The family argues that verification is necessary to prevent recurrence.
