The Tokyo District Court sentenced two-time Olympic judo champion Masato Uchishiba to five years in prison Friday for raping a female member of a university judo club at a Tokyo hotel in 2011.
Presiding Judge Tomonao Onizawa said the court "cannot trust" the claim by Uchishiba, a 34-year-old former gold medalist, that he had consensual sex with the student.
Later Friday, All Japan Judo Federation Chairman Haruki Uemura announced the organization will expel Uchishiba.
