2017/06/30 Greenpeace Statement: TEPCO Criminal Trial a Step Toward Justice for Fukushima Victims
In response, Energy Project Leader for Greenpeace Japan, Hisayo Takada, said:
“Today marks a historic step forward on the path to justice for Fukushima nuclear disaster survivors. The Japanese Diet’s own investigation concluded that this was a man-made catastrophe. Certainly, the TEPCO executives that are facing charges today are not the only responsible parties, but it is crucially important that they will have to answer in a transparent, public proceeding for the role they played. Greenpeace stands in solidarity with the plaintiffs and other Fukushima survivors.”
