TOKYO, Nov 28 — Tokyo prosecutors on Monday raided the offices of advertising agencies Hakuhodo DY Holdings Inc and Tokyu Agency in connection with possible bid-rigging related to Tokyo Olympics test events, Japanese broadcaster NTV reported on Monday.

The move follows Friday’s raid on the headquarters of another ad agency, Dentsu Group Inc, part of a widening scandal into corruption during the Tokyo 2020 Olympics.

Prosecutors also raided two other firms, including TV production firm FCC, a subsidiary of Fuji Media Holdings Inc, the Asahi daily reported.

In August, Haruyuki Takahashi, a former member of the Tokyo 2020 Olympics board and before that a Dentsu executive, was arrested on suspicion of receiving bribes from Olympic sponsors. — Reuters
