        TOKYO, Japan, Sept. 22 Kyodo - Japanese Novelist Yukio Mishima (C) attends a press conference, alongside Japanese novelist Sei Ito (R) and a lawyer, on Sept. 28, 1964, following a Tokyo District Court ruling ordering Mishima to pay 800,000 yen to Japan's former Foreign Minister Hachiro Arita. The court said the 1960 publication of Mishima's book "After the Banquet" so closely followed the events surrounding Arita's campaign to become governor of Tokyo that it violated the politician's privacy. The case is renowned as Japan's landmark judicial recognition of the right to privacy versus freedom of expression. The photo is taken from the book "The Chronicle: 70 years of postwar Japan (4) -- 1960-64 In the heat of the moment --," compiled by Kyodo News.(Kyodo)
