Korean ex-war criminal continues quest for justice from Japan

TOKYO, April 6 Kyodo - Lee Hyok Rae, chairman of a group formed by former Korean war criminals seeking justice and compensation from the Japanese government, attends the group's gathering marking its 60th anniversary on April 1, 2015, at the Japanese parliament in Tokyo.
