京アニ寄付に税制優遇＝犯罪被害者向けは異例－京都府

　京都アニメーションの放火殺人事件で、京都府は６日、同社の被害者らに寄付した個人・企業に対し、税負担を軽減する措置を適用すると発表した。犯罪被害者への寄付に税制優遇措置を講じるのは異例。
　府や日本赤十字社などは９日から１０月末まで寄付を受け付ける専用口座を設ける。個人が入金した場合、特定寄付金の対象となり、所得税や住民税が軽減される。企業が振り込んだ場合、自治体への寄付として、全額を税負担軽減につながる税務上の「損金」に算入する。
　京アニが先行して開設した自社の専用口座には既に、２５億円超の支援金が振り込まれており、全額を府の専用口座に移す。これまで京アニ専用口座に入金した個人や法人も同社に申し出れば、税制上の優遇措置を受けられる。（2019/09/06-18:11）

The Kyoto prefectural government said Friday that it will lower the tax burden on individuals and corporations who donate to victims in July's arson attack on Kyoto Animation Co., or KyoAni.
   The west Japan prefecture and the Japanese Red Cross Society will open a bank account for receiving such donations from Monday to Oct. 30. Individual donations will be subject to income and residential tax breaks and cooperate donations will be treated as deductible expenses.
   It is rare for donations to crime victims to be eligible for tax benefits.
   A total of over 2.5 billion yen has already been donated to a bank account opened by the animation company, whose studio in Fushimi Ward of the city of Kyoto was attacked by an arsonist on July 18. In the attack, 35 people were killed and 32 others were injured. The suspect, Shinji Aoba, was also severely burned.
   All the money in the company's dedicated bank account will be transferred to the new account. Individuals and corporations who made the donations can apply to receive preferential tax treatments.
