Court accepts petition for retrial of 1967 murder case

MITO, Japan - The Mito District Court decided Sept. 21 to allow a retrial of a 1967 murder-robbery case in the town of Tone, Ibaraki Prefecture, accepting petition from Shoji Sakurai (L) and Takao Sugiyama (R), two convicted men who have pleaded innocent. Their life sentences were finalized at the Supreme Court in 1978, and they had served 29 years in prison since their arrest before being released on parole in 1996. (Kyodo)
