Former Prime Minister Kan

TOKYO, Japan - Undated file photo shows former Japanese Prime Minister Naoto Kan. Kan verbally lashed Tokyo Electric Power Co. officials shortly after the hydrogen explosions at the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant in March 2011, ordering them to contain the crisis at all costs, company records showed March 15, 2012. ''It doesn't matter if the company executives aged around 60 die at the accident site. I'm going, too,'' Kan is quoted as saying, during his visit to TEPCO's headquarters in the early hours of March 15, 2011.
