TOKYO: Japanese prosecutors are seeking to question former prime minister Shinzo Abe over a scandal involving the cost of events held for his supporters, local media said Thursday. Under Japanese law, spending on political events must be reported, but prosecutors allege that Abe�s office failed to do so for dinners his political group organized on the eve of government-sponsored cherry blossom viewing parties.
