Okinawa curfew after sex charges 驻冲绳美军将实行宵禁


Protests against US bases in Japan are not uncommon 1


对美军基地的抗议活动在日本并非罕见


The US military said it would impose a midnight curfew and drinking ban on marines on the Japanese island of Okinawa after a serviceman was charged with sexually molesting 2 a 14-year-old girl in her bedroom.


But the restrictions 3 have prompted criticism as they will only apply for a few days before and during the summit of the Group of Eight (G8) countries, which is being held on the island in a fortnight's time.


On Friday, the chief aide of Japanese Prime Minister Yoshiro Mori flew to Okinawa to soothe 4 mounting local anger, while the top US military official on the island made an unprecedented 5 apology on Thursday.


一个美国士兵因在一个14岁的女孩卧室对其进行猥亵被起诉后,美国军方说,它将对驻日本冲绳岛的海军陆战队实行午夜宵禁和禁酒令。


但这一限令遭到了批评,因为它只是在八国首脑会议之前和期间在冲绳岛实行两周时间。


周五,日本首相首席顾问Yoshiro Mori飞往冲绳安抚日渐愤怒的民众,美军驻本岛最高将领也于周四做了前所未有的道歉
