                      Tokyo Olympic ex-exec faces fresh bribery charge

                      Prosecutors on Tuesday served a fresh arrest warrant on Haruyuki Takahashi, a former Tokyo Olympic organizing committee executive already embroiled in suspected corruption cases, for allegedly accepting bribes totaling 76 million yen ($54,000) from major publisher Kadokawa Corp. The Tokyo District Public Prosecutors Office also arrested former Kadokawa executive Toshiyuki Yoshihara, 64, and another person for allegedly bribing Takahashi, 78, as well as Kazumasa Fukami, 73, who heads a consulting firm, for allegedly receiving bribes from the publisher. The prosecutors also searched the home of the publisher's chairman, Tsuguhiko Kadokawa, over the case. The move comes after the prosecutors searched on Monday the offices of Daiko Advertising Inc., including its Osaka headquarters and branch in Tokyo, on suspicion of bribery.
