"The court sentenced the 58-year-old on Monday to a suspended jail term of 18 months and a fine of 5,000 euros ($5,830) for importing, possessing, recording or saving pornographic images of a minor below the age of 15. His sentence includes a ban on working with minors for 10 years and a ban on returning to France for the period. Kageyama will also be added to the French national sex offenders' register."
"Le Parisien reported that flight attendants caught him viewing the images on his laptop in the business class cabin of an Air France flight. He claimed to be an artist and insisted the photos had been generated by artificial intelligence. During his court appearance, the report said, Kageyama admitted viewing the images, saying he did not realise it was illegal in France and that he was ashamed."
Masanaga Kageyama, technical director of the Japanese Football Association, was arrested at Charles de Gaulle after flight crew discovered him viewing child pornography on a flight to Chile. He admitted viewing the images, said he did not realise it was illegal in France, and at one point claimed some photos were generated by artificial intelligence. A French court gave him an 18-month suspended jail term and a €5,000 fine for importing and possessing pornographic images of a minor under 15. The sentence includes a 10-year ban on working with minors, a ban on returning to France, and placement on the national sex offenders' register. Kageyama oversees youth development and coaching initiatives and has a background as a J-League player and coach.
