Japan which has openly denied legal responsibility for the issue of the sexual slavery for the Imperial Japanese Army now demands the dismantlement of the statue of a girl sexual slave outside the Japanese embassy in Seoul, the statement said.

Japan is going impudent, evading apology and reparation for the illegal and inhumanitarian crimes it committed against women in the past, the statement charged, adding:

The "government" which should put a brake on it, is siding with Japan's far-fetched assertions while turning a deaf ear to the protests of the victims of the sexual slavery.

The statement stressed that it is the Japanese government's responsibility to make state reparation for the illegal human rights abuses.
