Thank you all for coming to this press conference today in spite of your busy schedules. Today, I have decided to bring a libel suit in order to defend my human rights, the rights of my family and friends, and to protect the safety of my employer, Hokusei Gakuen University. The defendants are two, the Bungei Shunju Company, which publishes the Shukan Bunshun , and Mr. Tsutomu Nishioka, professor at the Tokyo Christian University, who has, without justification, labeled my articles “fabrications.”
