Okinawa mayor 'sorry' for US brothel remarks
Investigation in progress I guess.
Quote:
The mayor of the Japanese city of Osaka has apologised for suggesting US soldiers should use legal brothels as a way to curb sexual crimes in Okinawa.
US personnel have been involved in a number of violent crimes in Okinawa over the years, including rapes.
Toru Hashimoto drew international criticism last week when he said that sex slaves ("comfort women") served a necessary role during World War II.
