Lawyer meets ex-AUM cult member Hirata

TOKYO, Japan - Lawyer Taro Takimoto speaks to reporters in Tokyo on Jan. 2, 2012, after meeting with Makoto Hirata, a former leading member of the AUM Shinrikyo cult who turned himself in to police on Dec. 31. Takimoto said Hirata, 46, who had been on the wanted list since May 1995, thinks that AUM founder Shoko Asahara ''deserves the death penalty'' and that he does not believe in the cult anymore.
