Kernrechtsfrage
Whether the Japanese request was sufficiently motivated under Art. 28 EIMP
Extrahierter Entscheid
Yes. The request identified the criminal conduct, the persons involved, and the purpose of tracing funds; this was enough to rule out manifest inadmissibility.
Extrahierte Begründung
In mutual assistance, the request need only contain enough detail to verify admissibility; it need not prove the foreign case. The request adequately explained the alleged market manipulation and the need to trace proceeds.
