Five Japanese war criminals paroled by Japan
Five Japanese war criminals received life sentences from the United States were released from Sugamo prison in a milestone, the first parole granted by Japan rather than the U S. A clemency board approved transfers last Saturday, as Japan gains parole powers. Forty prisoners remain at Sugamo. The foreign ministry noted the move with expectations for faster future releases.
