Footage of the attack shows Japanese police detaining the suspect while a loud explosion can be heard. After the bang, people scream and run away while white smoke can be seen rising from where the explosion went off.\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Video appeared to show bystanders grabbing the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2023\/04\/14\/world\/asia\/japan-prime-minister-blast-fumio-kishida.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">suspect, who is<\/a> a 24-year-old named Kimura.

Abe, a politician on the foundation right, served as prime minister of Japan for the longest period of time since World War II, from 2012 to 2020.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The Nara District Court has announced Tetsuya Yamagami&#8217;s&#8217;s trial for murder and a weapons charge after he is accused of shooting Abe in July with an unregistered firearm. The accusations are made following a thorough thought analysis to see if Yamagami could stand trial.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Although the trial&#8217;s&#8217;s date has not yet been decided, bench courts and a panel of legal judges are anticipated to preside over the hearing. A judgment may result in the death penalty, but specialists believe a life time is more likely.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Yamagami has claimed that the shooting was motivated by Abe&#8217;s&#8217;s purported ties to the Unification Church, according to authorities. Because of his mother&#8217;s&#8217;s significant financial contributions to the church, Yamamami disliked it, and its impact on the public square is contentious in Japan.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">In addition to costs related to building problems, Yamagami could also be hit with other weapons and violent charges.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">On Sunday, ambassadors from the G7 countries will gather in Japan to talk about the China, North Korea, and Russia-Ukraine War.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>One person was injured after an explosive device was thrown at Japanese Prime Minister Fumio Kishida during a campaign event on Saturday.\u00a0 Kishida, who was campaigning in western Japan, was not injured in the attack, but a police officer did receive treatment for some minor injuries, according to The Associated Press.
