Police unearthed the body of Yokohama lawyer Tsutsuru Sakamoto who vanished in November 1989 with his wife Satoko and 14 month old Tatsuhiko. The discovery strengthens the murder case against Shoko Asahara and five cult followers. A former member was charged in Sakamoto's death. The cult is linked to lethal chemical stockpiles and the Tokyo subway attack that killed 12 and injured thousands.
