Abe Apologizes, But Isn’t Charged for Cherry Blossom Scandal Prosecutors investigated whether Abe, his aide and two executives from his political support group had subsidized the party fees in violation of campaign and election funds laws. By December 25, 2020 Advertisement Former Prime Minister Abe Shinzo apologized Thursday after prosecutors declined to indict him for illegal payments his office made involving dinner receptions for his supporters during Japan’s popular cherry blossom season. When Abe resigned in September, he cited ill health but critics have suggested the scandal might have been a reason. His successor, Suga Yoshihide, scrapped the annual cherry blossom viewing party the day he took office, but his government has seen its public support plunge due to delayed coronavirus measures and a spate of scandals involving Abe’s former ministers.
