会計責任者の在宅起訴検討　安倍派２議員も立件方針―パーティー収入事件・東京地検

　自民党派閥の政治資金パーティー収入を巡る事件で、最大派閥「清和政策研究会」（安倍派）と「志帥会」（二階派）が億単位に上る収入を派閥の政治資金収支報告書に記載しなかったとして、東京地検特捜部が政治資金規正法違反罪で、両派の会計責任者を在宅起訴する方向で検討していることが１３日、関係者への取材で分かった。
　パーティー券販売のノルマ超過分について特に高額な還流を受け、裏金化した疑いがある安倍派の大野泰正参院議員（６４）と谷川弥一衆院議員（８２）を立件する方針であることも判明。同派幹部らについては、会計責任者との共謀の有無について詰めの捜査を進めているもようだ。（2024/01/13-17:05）

Public prosecutors are considering indicting officials in charge of accounting at two factions of Japan's ruling Liberal Democratic Party without arrest over a high-profile political funds scandal, informed sources said Saturday.
   The accounting officials of the LDP's largest faction, formerly led by the late Prime Minister Shinzo Abe, and the faction headed by former LDP Secretary-General Toshihiro Nikai allegedly failed to include some revenues from fundraising events in the factions' financial statements, in violation of the political funds control law.
   The accounting officials have admitted to the allegations during questioning by investigators, according to the sources.
   The special investigation squad of the Tokyo District Public Prosecutors Office is believed to be investigating whether the factions' executives conspired with the accounting officials.
   Over the scandal, the special investigation squad also plans to build cases against two lawmakers of the Abe faction--House of Councillors member Yasutada Ono, 64, and House of Representatives member Yaichi Tanigawa, 82, the sources said.
