The Minowa Town Board of Education announced on the 22nd that it had dismissed a 74-year-old instructor at an after-school club for sexually assaulting a girl under the age of 16 who was one of his students.
The person who was dismissed for disciplinary reasons is a 74-year-old male instructor at an after-school club in Minowa Town.
According to the Minowa Town Board of Education, in November of this year, the instructor took a girl under the age of 16, whom he had previously taught as an instructor at an after-school club, to his home, telling her he had a present for her, and sexually assaulted her.
The incident came to light when the girl consulted a teacher she knew, and when questioned by the town's legal counsel hired by the Board of Education, the instructor reportedly said, "She didn't resist or show any resistance, so I thought she consented."
Minowa Town Board of Education Superintendent Kobayashi Hisamichi apologized, saying, "We feel strong indignation at this malicious and despicable act. We deeply apologize for causing the victim sorrow and hurt that cannot be put into words."
