[전국]”Indemnity neglect” Mitsubishi assets seizure effect…”immediate appeal”

[앵커]

Despite the Supreme Court’s ruling for compensation for the victims of Japanese forced labor, Japan’s Mitsubishi Heavy Industries has been neglecting compensation for more than two years.

The court’s seizure order to monetize the company’s domestic assets took effect today, and Mitsubishi announced that it would appeal immediately, foreshadowing a legal dispute.

In 2012, five victims of forced labor and their families filed a lawsuit for damages against Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, Japan.

After six years of trial, the Supreme Court ruled that the victims should each be paid 100 million to 150 million won of alimony.

At this time, it seemed to be releasing the pain of a lifetime, but Mitsubishi Heavy Industries has turned away compensation for two years.

The unbearable victims and their bereaved family went through the seizure and sale of eight patents and trademarks owned by Mitsubishi Heavy Industries in Korea, and finally the grounds for legal proceedings have been laid.

This is because the public service of the order for seizure took effect after the court’s examination for the sale order last month.

Service by public notice is a process that a court considers to have been delivered by public notice for a period of time when a document cannot be delivered to a party in the usual manner.

The amount of the bond is 840 million won.

However, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries said it would immediately appeal to the Korean court’s order to seize assets through Japanese media.

Mitsubishi Heavy Industries reiterated its position, “I understand that it is completely and finally resolved with the Korea-Japan Claims Agreement, and no argument can be made.”

If the appeal is made as scheduled, the effect of the seizure order will not be confirmed and legal disputes will continue.

Two of the five who won the Supreme Court ruling have passed away, and the remaining victims are over ninety years old.

In addition, amidst the signs of a diplomatic conflict between Korea and Japan, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs refused to say that it had nothing to say about the progress of the judicial process.
