| English summary | On April 17, 2024, the Fair Trade Commission filed a criminal complaint with the Prosecutor General against four companies, including Higashi-Nihon Usami Corporation, for suspected violations of the Anti-Monopoly Act. The investigation concerned a price cartel among diesel fuel sellers. The five accused companies, all engaged in the sale of diesel and similar fuels, conspired with employees of other fuel sellers to agree on raising or maintaining sales prices of diesel sold via fuel cards issued to transportation companies with negotiation offices in Tokyo. This conduct was found to substantially restrict competition. |
