A long-established ryokan in Chikushino City, Fukuoka Prefecture, which was instructed to improve the hot water in the public bath only twice a year, said that it initially gave a false explanation to the public health center, and the prefecture violated the public bath law. I filed a criminal complaint against him.
The long-established inn "Daimaru Besso" in Futsukaichi Onsen in Chikushino City changed the hot water in the large public bath, which must be changed at least once a week by prefectural ordinance, only twice a year when the facility was closed. I also neglected to inject chlorine for the sake, and Legionella bacteria were detected up to 3700 times the standard value, and I received improvement guidance from Fukuoka Prefecture in December last year.
Initially, the inn explained to the public health center that the hot water exchange was appropriate.
Regarding this, the prefecture announced that it had filed a criminal complaint against Daimaru Besso and the former president, who resigned, for allegedly violating the public bath law.
The accusation was received by the police on the 8th.
Satoshi Tamura, head of the Fukuoka Prefectural Health and Sanitation Division, said at a press conference, "The false explanations are a huge problem, and we can't overlook them just because things are improving. It's a big deal because it shows the government's stance of dealing with it strictly. meaningful,” he said.
Regarding this, Daimaru Besso said, ``It is true that I gave a false explanation, and I think that criminal charges are a natural result.
