Lawyers join hands to stop nuclear power plants
Lawyers from around Japan are joining hands to take legal action to shutdown nuclear power plants.
Over 50 lawyers from 20 prefectures that host nuclear plants convened in Tokyo on Saturday.
They decided to file a lawsuit to stop the resumption of reactor 1 at the Oi plant in Fukui Prefecture, which is about to be taken offline because of a malfunction. They will also file to prevent the restart of reactor 1 at the Takahama plant, which is undergoing regular inspections.
The lawyers intend to launch a procedure in autumn to stop the construction of the Oma plant in Aomori Prefecture. The project has been suspended since the March 11th disaster.
