Yasunori Kagoike, center, head of an ultra-nationalistic Japanese school operator, testifies before an upper house panel at the parliament in Tokyo, Thursday, March 23, 2017. Kagoike, at the center of a land and political scandal, testified in parliament that Prime Minister Shinzo Abe donated 1 million yen ($9,000) through his wife for an elementary school where she once was honorary principal. Abe has denied the donation or any influence in the scandal stemming from a questionable 2016 state property sale to Kagoike. (AP/RSS Photo/Eugene Hoshiko)
