That way the police, medical personal, or firemen can plan accordingly in case of an emergency. This is a smart thing, Ayu will look very bad if someone didn't get to the hospital on time because she wanted to promote her book.
People may have the same rights, but everyone has different responsibilties. Ayu should know better. Most people don't have that responsibilty so they can freely walk whereever they want. Ayu cannot or should not, so I strongly disagree with what she said. I encourage everyone else to disagree with her statement because it's healthy, that shows we are concern for her public image, but more importantly, the safety of others.

I agree with half of the things you and Impackbreaker said.
First since what she said is translated from 3 languages it could be lost in translation.
Secondly if this is what she said she was sure that the permission was given.
It's not in her own responsibility to ask for it. Accroding to what she said she most likely told that there was a given permission and was instructed to go to that event normally. That's why the blame shouldn't go to her. Her job was to simply go there a promote it, asking for permission is a staff of her company job and to make sure it's given.
That's why I don't jump to disagree with what she said.
I agree with the safety of the people is the most important thing in the whole issue. Still, we can't blame it on her. She did her job going to promote the book and as she said in the statement she was noticed that there was a permission and that she could go normally (things were taken care of) and to go there normally. If there wasn't a permission it was the company's responsibility to cancel the whole event because the permission wasn't given.
It's not ok at all to threat safety of others, but it's not her fault and I don't think the statement is that unresponsible sounding. She did say she was told things were taken care of in that matter, and she herself shouldn't ask for the permission and be responsible for those issues, it's not her job.
You could say she was kind of "decieved" while she wasn't literally.
