No charges expected over Fukushima disaster-video

No case against prime minister, officials and utility chiefs, Japanese media reports.

Japanese prosecutors are not expected to press charges against any state officials or companies over the handling of the 2011 Fukushima nuclear crisis, national media has said. Sources told the Asahi Shimbun newspaper that despite 15,000 criminal complaints, investigators have found insufficient evidence of responsibility for the 2011 disaster, which developed after a massive earthquake and tsunami, Prosecutors judged that it would be difficult to prove anyone in charge could have predicted a natural disaster of such proportions. They would also have difficulty establishing a link between the nuclear crisis and casualties among evacuees, the newspaper said. They have questioned Naoto Kan, prime minister at the time of the disaster, and investigated others including Masataka Shimizu, the president of Fukushima's operator Tepco.

Here's real reason no one will be charged: First Japan's nuclear industry owns the Liberal Democratic Party (LDP). Second: Even though Nato Kan is now member of the opposition he was once a member of the LDP. Third because the nuclear industry owns the ruling party do you really believe that the public prosecuter is going to indite TEPOC's managememt at that time thus cutting off the LDP's sugerdaddy? I don't think so.

Here's the reality: Japan's elite never suffer the consequnces for their illict actions
