TOKYO, May 9 (Reuters) - Chubu Electric Power Co shares were untraded on Monday due to a glut of sell orders after Japan's prime minister called for a shutdown of its nuclear plant in Hamaoka, central Japan.
Local media said on Monday that Chubu Electric was seeking a meeting with Prime Minister Naoto Kan to confirm government support for the closure before holding an extraordinary board meeting and accepting Kan's call. (Reporting by Chikako Mogi; Editing by Edmund Klamann)
