Sumo Star Was Sued
The big sumo champ was sued by an ex-school ma'am,
making the headlines of the week.
Name of the champ was Haguroyama and the charge
against him breach of promise (to marry).
The plaintiff, Fumiko Sato, 32, demanded "consolation
money" of 1,000,000 yen.
The story behind all this was not so uncommon.
The two enemies of today met during the war, fell
in love and had a baby.
But the war came to a end and the sumo champ, leaving
Fumiko-san, shot up to prominence as one of the shiniest stars in the sumo
business.
Dazzled by his own radiance, he even began to ignore
his financial duty as a daddy, or so said the ex-school ma'am.
The champ was the second sumo star to be sued on
the same charge this year.
