The Japan Times WEEKLY A travesty of Justice


1) A travesty of Justice

 茶番の捜査

 

2) The police have apologized to four people for mistakenly arresting them over threats posted on the Internet.

警察は、インターネット上で犯行予告を書き込んだとして逮捕された4人は誤認逮捕であったことを謝罪した。

 

3) The police apologized that the four people who arrested because of the suspicion of made the threats on the internet were their mistake. Although the true criminal was the person who hacked the four people’s computer, the police extracted confessions from two of them. The police must avoid similar mistakes forever and investigate the cause of this incident.

 

4) When I read this article, I felt the distrust to the police. I think maybe the people who arrested as mistakenly were received psychological pressures and leading questions from the police, and under this threat, they had to confess. This is very fearful. I hope the police investigate crimes with a sense of justice, and they should lost the false charges.

 

5) Vocabulary

 interrogation 尋問

 prosecutor 検察官

    I think that the police should care about the four people's mind.
