Yuji Naka

A Tokyo District Court judge sentenced Yuji Naka to two years and six months in prison, suspended for four years, for insider trading. He was also ordered to forfeit 171 million yen and pay a fine of two million yen. This marked the resolution of his legal proceedings, with a suspended sentence allowing him to avoid immediate imprisonment.

Yuji Naka was arrested again, accused of insider trading related to shares of ATeam before the announcement of their game Final Fantasy VII: The First Soldier. This further compounded his legal troubles and intensified scrutiny of his financial activities.
