Japanese Man Acquitted Of 1966 Murders After 45 Years On Death Row | WION Fineprint
A Japanese man who spent nearly 50 years on death row has been declared not guilty of multiple murders in a highly publicized trial that has sparked debate over Japan’s use of the death penalty. Iwao Hakamada, 88, was sentenced to hang in 1968 after being convicted of killing his boss, his wife, and their two teenage children, as well as setting fire to their home two years prior. The recent ruling has reignited discussions about the fairness of the judicial process and the treatment of individuals on death row in Japan.
