旧統一教会に「解散命令」を　宗教法人法に基づき―立民・安住氏

　立憲民主党の安住淳国対委員長は１４日、世界平和統一家庭連合（旧統一教会）について「適格性に大変な疑念がある。（党内は）宗教法人法に基づいて解散の手続きを裁判所に起こすべきだとの意見が大勢だ」と述べ、解散命令請求を政府に求めていく考えを示した。国会内で記者団の質問に答えた。
　宗教法人法は、宗教法人が「法令に違反して、著しく公共の福祉を害すると明らかに認められる行為」などをした場合、文化庁などの請求により、裁判所が解散を命令できると規定。これまでに解散命令は、地下鉄サリン事件などを起こしたオウム真理教など２例ある。（2022/09/14-17:46）

The main opposition Constitutional Democratic Party of Japan will urge the government to take action to disband the religious group known as the Unification Church, CDP parliamentary affairs chief Jun Azumi indicated Wednesday.
   "There are serious doubts about the eligibility" of the group, formally called the Family Federation for World Peace and Unification, as a religious corporation, Azumi told reporters.
   "Many say (the government) should file with a court for procedures to disband (the Unification Church) under the Religious Corporations Act," he stressed.
   The law stipulates that, upon request from the Cultural Affairs Agency or others, a court can order a religious corporation to disband if it has committed an act that is clearly found to harm public welfare substantially in violation of laws and regulations.
   Such orders have been handed down twice in the past, including to the now-defunct Aum Shinrikyo doomsday cult, which carried out the sarin nerve gas attack on Tokyo's subway system.
