MITO, Japan - This file photo shows postcards that Shoji Sakurai and Takao Sugiyama, both 64, sent to each other while they were detained in isolation cells at the Tokyo Detention House. On May 24, 2011, the Tsuchiura branch of the Mito District Court acquitted them of murder in a retrial, clearing their names more than 43 years after their arrests. The two men had been sentenced to life imprisonment in 1970 for the August 1967 robbery and murder of Shoten Tamamura, a 62-year-old carpenter, and were freed on parole in 1996.
