[sumo] Tokitsukaze goes on TV

[Moti]

Tokitsukaze went on TV today to explain his side of the story. He
hasn't spoken to the press in a while but he did today. "Since we are
in the middle of a police investigation, neither myself or my deshi
could speak. I have my own story to tell, and I wish to explain today",
he said, attempting to explain why now. "I am feeling deep remorse over
the death of my deshi." As for the thirty minute butsugari prior to the
death- "It was a judgmental error on my part. It should have been 5,
maximum 10 minutes. He wasn't showing any strength, so it just dragged
on..", he explained. About the bat- "A deshi hit him once on the
buttocks with the bat and I immediately demanded he stop", he said.
Asked if he didn't order his deshi to beat Saito up, he answered "No
way! Never happened!".
How about his offer to the family to cremate the deceased? "I never said a word on that subject!!", he emphasized.

rijicho: "When I heard he went on TV I was greatly surprised . I don't
know what he is feeling, but a life was lost and he should reflect
deeply about that. If he can go on TV, he should face the rest of the
media!!".
