Japan PM's Son Resigns After Partying at Official Residence

Japanese Prime Minister Fumio Kishida's son, Shotaro Kishida, is resigning as his executive policy secretary due to his responsibility for using the prime minister's residence for a private party.
Photos published in a magazine showed Kishida's son and relatives posing on the stairs of the residence, imitating newly appointed Cabinets.
Although Kishida briefly greeted guests, he did not stay at the party and severely reprimanded his son.
Kishida's decision to appoint his son as policy secretary in October was criticized as nepotism.
This is not the first time Kishida's son has faced criticism for misusing his position for personal reasons.
