Another complaint for professional negligence against TEPCO -13,000 signatories

FUKUSHIMA, Japan, Nov. 15, Kyodo

A group of 13,000 people across Japan on Thursday filed a criminal complaint against 33 senior officials of Tokyo Electric Power Co. and the government’s now-defunct Nuclear Safety Commission over the nuclear disaster at the company’s Fukushima Daiichi power plant following the March 11, 2011 earthquake and tsunami.

In the letter of complaint filed with prosecutors, the complainants asked that the accused be investigated and indicted on suspicion of professional negligence resulting in deaths and injuries.

The complaint was the second in a series by the group, following one made in June by 1,300 people mainly from Fukushima Prefecture.
