Not only interest but also the principal

In December 2019, the former operating company of “Awashima Hotel” (Numazu City), which is also known as the sacred place of the popular anime “Love Live! Sunshine !!”, decided to start bankruptcy proceedings from the Shizuoka District Court Numazu Branch. I received it.

The total debt is 40 billion yen, and the number of creditors is 2000. Mr. Hiroyuki failed to steer the management. On April 16, 2018, a company called ” Aurora ” ( Nagoya City ), which has the nickname of a reconstruction building, bought a corpse of Awashima Hotel for 1 yen per share, totaling 1 yen—sold for 200 yen. But that alone was not a solution.

This is because Awashima Hotel sells memberships for 3 million yen per unit, invites high yields, solicits loans from members, and offers to purchase private placement bonds. When the Awashima Hotel was sold to Aurora, interest and principal repayment were stopped, and about ten members filed a petition, leading to the decision to start bankruptcy proceedings.

The representative of the “Creditors’ Association for Protecting the Awashima Hotel” said, “As of, there are about 110 members in the association, and the total amount of creditors is 3 billion yen. I have been suffering from damage, such as being unable to use the Awashima Hotel even though I purchased the membership or the loan not being returned.

“It is said that he was deceiving money from the members.
