大川原化工機 えん罪事件 警察庁長官“国民の信頼損ね 遺憾”

横浜市の「大川原工機」をめぐるえん罪事件で、警視庁公安部検察捜査違法性認め東京高等裁判所判決確定したことについて、警察庁の楠芳伸 長官は「当事者多大なるご心労、ご負担をおかけし、警察に対する国民信頼損ねたことは極めて遺憾だ」と述べ緻密かつ適正捜査徹底していく考え示しました。

軍事転用可能機械不正に輸出した疑い逮捕起訴され、後に無実判明した横浜市化学機械メーカー「大川原工機」の社長などが、都と国を訴え裁判で、2東京高等裁判所は5月、1に続いて、警視庁公安部東京地検捜査違法性認め、都と国に合わせて1億6600万円余り賠償命じました。

都側の警視庁国側東京地検は11日、最高裁判所上告しないことを決め判決確定しました。

これについて、警察庁の楠長官は12日の定例会見で「原告をはじめ当事者多大なるご心労、ご負担をおかけし、警察に対する国民信頼損ねたことは極めて遺憾で、警察庁としても重く受け止めている」と述べました。

また、「警察の活動国民信頼の上に成り立っていて、公安部門捜査おいて二度とこのようなことがないようにする必要がある」として、全国の警察に対し職員改めて適切捜査活動必要性認識させるとともに、
幹部が十分な捜査指揮を行うよう指示したことを明らかにしました。

そのうえで、警視庁検証結果踏まえ警察庁としても捜査上の留意点や再発防止策を取りまとめ緻密かつ適正捜査について都道府県警察に対する指導強化していく考え示しました。
