NPA head tells police chiefs to be aware of duty

TOKYO, Japan - National Police Agency (NPA) Director General Setsuo Tanaka (R) on March 4 urges Japan's police chiefs to be aware of their duty and to enforce discipline in their police forces. Tanaka delivered the message to the chiefs of the nation's 47 prefectural police forces who were summoned to an emergency meeting at the NPA in Tokyo. Kosuke Hori (L), chief of the National Public Safety Commission and home affairs minister, told the meeting it was regrettable that the scandals involving the Niigata prefectural police had led to the NPA chief's responsibility of supervising Nakada to be cast in doubt.
