TOKYO, Sept 9 (Xinhua): A Japanese language school has been removed from the immigration agency's list of approved schools after one of its staff was found to have restrained a Vietnamese student for several hours using a chain and padlock, local media said this Wednesday (Sept 7).

The scrapping of the certification of the Nishinihon International Education Institute in the southwestern city of Fukuokaannounced by the Immigration Services Agency (ISA) on Wednesday is the first such measure taken by the agency since stricter standards for removal were outlined in 2016.
