Takanohana part ways with Nishonoseki faction

TOKYO, Japan - Former sumo grand champion Takanohana appears solemn after meeting with the Nishonoseki faction at Tokyo's Ryogoku Kokugikan on Jan. 8, 2010. The 37-year-old said he will part ways with Nishinoseki to announce his candidacy in the Japan Sumo Association's board of directors election, breaking a convention of running with the support of a faction, as his faction failed to select candidates earlier in the day.
