新华社北京10月8日电 日本执政党自由民主党近期再曝丑闻,该党在爱知县的重要人物、爱知县副议长成田修被指在亚运会期间驾车强行闯入比赛场地,引发广泛争议。据日本媒体8日报道,成田修已就此事道歉,还表示将辞去副议长职务。
据日本《周刊文春》杂志等媒体报道,强闯事件发生在位于爱知县常滑市的爱知县国际展示场,该场馆为本届亚运会击剑赛事举办地。9月26日傍晚,成田修驾驶私家车试图进入该场地,因没有通行许可证被警卫人员拦下。面对询问,成田修态度蛮横,冲破警卫人员阻拦,驾车径直闯入。
强闯事件发生后,爱知·名古屋亚运会组委会要求爱知县议会采取措施,防止再次发生类似事件。日本民众则对自民党再度曝出丑闻表示强烈不满,要求成田修辞职的呼声高涨。一些民众在网络上批评,从福冈县议会“进贡门”、到农林水产大臣梁和生“预算门”,近期丑闻频发的自民党已沦为“丑闻素材宝库”。另有民众嘲讽,自民党聚集了大批自命不凡的人,他们只想着谋取私利,令人厌恶。
面对舆论压力,成田修在7日举行的自民党爱知县议员团会议上表示,将辞去副议长职务,同时有意脱离该议员团。
