Gov't raid on AUM splinter group
TOKYO, Japan - Officials from the Justice Ministry's Public Security Intelligence Agency walk into a facility of Hikari no Wa (Circle of Rainbow Light), a splinter group of the AUM Shinrikyo cult known for its sarin nerve gas attack on the Tokyo subway system in 1995, in Tokyo's Setagaya Ward on Feb. 3, 2012. The inspection of the group led by former senior AUM member Fumihiro Joyu was based on the law allowing the government to put groups that have been involved with an indiscriminate mass murder under surveillance.
