Prosecution Brands Tojo Regime as Treacherous Aggressors
Tokyo June 4 AP Chief Prosecutor Keenan opened the war crimes trial of Hideko Tojo and 25 Japanese militarists, calling them assassins who ruled a treacherous nation. He accused Japan of planning and carrying out aggression from Port Arthur to Pearl Harbor. The 15,000 word statement framed aggression as a crime under international law and outlined a plan to place individual blame for wartime killings. The defense gains time as the court plans to expand to 11 judges.
