Question from a reader:
I just watched Miyane-ya, and I would like to clarify the following points: 1. In the end, does it mean that the investigation results will not be disclosed? 2. Has it been confirmed that Nakai Masahiro committed sexual violence? 3. Is it correct to understand that Nakai Masahiro’s side will not lift the confidentiality obligation because there
are things that would trouble the victim if discussed? Please let me know if I’m mistaken!
Thoughts on the Nakai Masahiro Case
Recently, reports about Nakai Masahiro on Miyane-ya have become a hot topic. Amid various opinions and questions, a reader’s inquiry has been made. Honestly, the legal world can be quite complex, often leading to differing viewpoints, but I would like to share my thoughts on the matter.
Disclosure of Investigation Results
First, regarding whether the investigation results will be disclosed, this is a very delicate issue. Nakai has requested the disclosure of evidence confirming sexual violence, but the third-party committee has stated that they are not obliged to comply. Legally speaking, this is understandable. However, in general, transparency is expected in such situations, and as a fan, I can empathize with feelings of frustration. In fact, I have watched several documentaries related to law and have witnessed similar situations where evidence often remains undisclosed, which is quite surprising.
Confirmation of Sexual Violence
Next, concerning whether Nakai has been confirmed to have committed sexual violence, this is an issue that must be handled with care. Reports indicate that it has been “confirmed,” but many circumstances are hidden behind this statement. Legally, without confirmed evidence, the basic principle is that one is presumed innocent, and media reports are not always accurate. Most importantly, since this issue involves personal honor and dignity, I believe we cannot treat it lightly.
Confidentiality Obligation Lifting
Lastly, regarding the lifting of the confidentiality obligation, this is also complex. It’s intriguing that Nakai initially proposed lifting the confidentiality obligation. However, after being informed by the third-party committee that he was “not under investigation,” it seems he changed his stance, which leaves one with mixed feelings. Legally, if there is consent, the confidentiality obligation can be lifted even now, but the unclear reasons for why it has not been lifted at this point make one ponder.
In Conclusion
Legal issues can sometimes feel like murky waters. I also work part-time at a judicial scrivener’s office, and I often find the legal world to be more complicated than one might think. Especially when human relationships are involved, emotions can complicate matters even further. In such scenarios, searching for what is right and what is true is genuinely challenging. What do you all think about these issues? If you have any interesting anecdotes or experiences you would like to share, please let me know in the comments. I look forward to hearing your opinions!
