The Fukuoka District Court has ruled against a Japanese language school in Minami-ku, Fukuoka City, which sought to overturn the Ministry of Justice’s decision to revoke its accreditation. The school had faced allegations of human rights abuses, including the confinement of Vietnamese students with chains. The court acknowledged these violations and stated the school’s management had failed to intervene, upholding the Ministry’s decision as lawful. The school has announced its intention to appeal.
