Alibi (English spelling)

Japanese: アリバイ(英語表記)alibi
Alibi (English spelling)
Absence from the scene of the crime. A person suspected of a crime proves his/her innocence by asserting that he/she was somewhere other than the scene of the crime at the time and date of the crime. The indictment must specifically specify and clearly state the date, time, place, and method of the crime (Criminal Procedure Law, Article 256, Paragraph 3), which not only clarifies the subject of the trial but also has an important bearing on the defendant's submission of an alibi. In British and American criminal courts, there are restrictions on the time period for submitting an alibi, but there are no special restrictions under Japanese law.

現場不在証明のこと。犯罪の嫌疑を受けた者が,犯行の日時に犯罪の現場以外の場所にいたという事実を主張して,自己の無実を証明すること。起訴状には,犯行の日時,場所,方法などを具体的に特定して明示しなければならないが (刑事訴訟法 256条3項) ,これは審判の対象を明確にするばかりでなく,被告人のアリバイ提出に重要な関連を有している。イギリス,アメリカの刑事法廷では,アリバイ提出の時期的制約があるが,日本法には特別の制限はない。
