The group also posted video footage of the rallies online.Osaka High Court Presiding Judge Hiroshi Mori said in his ruling that the rallies outside the school were clearly driven by racist ideals, and not at all in the interests of public, TBS reported.He said the rallies, which disturbed classes and scared children, constitute racial discrimination defined under the United Nations convention on the elimination of racial discrimination, which Japan has ratified.Along with the ruling on paying compensation, Zaitokukai has also been ordered by the court to cease all such activities within a 200-meter radius of the school from now on.However, a lawyer for the group said it will appeal the Osaka court s ruling to the Supreme Court, arguing that its members were expressing a political opinion.Officials from Zaitokukai, which boats more than 10,000 members, say they were protesting the Kyoto school s use of a nearby city-run park without permission. They say they are protesting alleged special privileges given to ethnic Koreans, and say Japan s welfare system is abused by Korean residents.
