A lawmaker “Antonio Inoki” is going to prohibit attending a session of the Parliament, because of visiting North Korea without parliament committee permission.

_ I don’t know the severity of the issue, I could not talk anything.

But I think that the prohibition means to deprive his right to vote in the Parliament though he was trusted by this followings.

I remember that lawmakers have a right of “immunity from arrest”.

Even if they kill someone or set afire, they are never arrested by police.

The purpose of the right is to protect lawmakers against powers, when the powers want to make favorable laws easily.

But I heard this "immunity from arrest" has been available in the Diet session.

So, I think that it is enormous server restriction to stop attending the Parliament though some procedures are needed.

There are many ten or more thousand followers behind "Antonio Inoki", and this restriction also stop their politics intentions.

But I don’t sympathize his circumstance at the present.

I feel that “a lawmaker visits North Korea” is not good emotionally. On the other hand I become interested in the logic of the restriction.

Though I think “Let me check this issue”, the staring bell is ringing. That's enough for today.
