As a result, the former representative was sentenced to 10 months in prison (with a three-year probation) by Hiroshima District Court for violating Article 198 of the Penal Code (bribery), with the sentence finalized on February 9, 2022. This conduct corresponds to Item 3, Paragraph 1, Article 28 of the Construction Business Act.
