Anti-nuclear
protest blogger’s home raided by police, computer equipment seized
Yuzuru
Kaneko, a blogger who has been filming the anti-nuclear protests in
Fukui Prefecture, had his home raided by police on October 1st in
order to search for evidence of potential demonstrators who had
committed crimes. [...]
On
June 30th [... an] activist there that day was later arrested in
September, accused of damaging property, threat and assault at the
gate, and causing injury. In order to gain more evidence, the police
searched Kaneko’s home, despite he having no relation to the man
arrested, and seized all of his computer equipment, cameras, and
memory cards. His property was still un-returned on November 5th when
his supporters began pressuring the authorities to return Kaneko’s
equipment, which they stated they would on November 8th.
