In July this year, former Prime Minister Abe was shot and died while giving a speech in Nara City. I learned from interviews with investigators that they have decided to indict for the crime.

In July this year, the police arrested Tetsuya Yamagami (42), an unemployed resident of Nara City, in an incident in which former Prime Minister Abe was shot and killed while giving a speech in Nara City, and investigated for murder. I'm here.



According to the investigation so far, Yamagami is believed to have caused the incident after growing a grudge against the former Unification Church "Family Federation for World Peace and Unification", to which his mother had made a large donation. I thought the former prime minister had a close relationship with the organization," he said.



Based on these statements, the Nara District Public Prosecutor's Office said that it was necessary to investigate criminal responsibility, and from July this year, the suspect's home environment and relationship with his mother were interviewed by a specialist doctor. I have undergone a psychiatric evaluation.



According to investigative sources, the Nara District Public Prosecutor's Office determined that Yamagami had manufactured a homemade gun and that he had carefully planned the shooting based on his speech schedule, in addition to the results of the appraisal. It has decided that he is responsible and has decided to indict him for murder.



The period of appraisal detention is until January 10 next year, and the Nara District Public Prosecutors Office is expected to indict him by January 13, the deadline for detention.
