Japan PM wife's name removed from documents in suspected cronyism scandal: media | Reuters

TOKYO (Reuters) - Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe and his close ally, Finance Minister Taro Aso, faced growing pressure on Monday over a suspected cover-up of a cronyism scandal that has dogged the premier for more than a year. Copies of documents seen by Reuters showed that references to Abe, his wife and Aso were removed from finance ministry records of the discounted sale of state-owned land

The risk now for Aso and Abe, experts said, is that the suspected cover-up does more damage than the land sale itself.

逆立ちしたって庇えない昭恵の行状を、役人・閣僚みんな巻き込んで庇おうとしたってことだというのが、徐々に海外に知れ渡りつつある。これは政治家生命ゼロかマイナスでしょ。
