The Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology (MEXT) has requested the Tokyo District Court for a dissolution order against the Family Federation for World Peace and Unification (hereafter the Family Federation or the Unification Church). However, victims told related parties that affidavits prepared by MEXT and submitted to the court contained statements that were NOT true. The hearing is being held behind closed doors, but it is believed that multiple affidavits submitted as evidence of “unlawful acts” to dissolve the Family Federation were NOT written by the alleged victims and contains false information.
