Tokyo Sarin attack: Aum Shinrikyo cult leaders executed
FULL ARTICLE HERESeven members of the Aum Shinrikyo doomsday cult which carried out a deadly chemical attack on the Tokyo underground in 1995 have been executed, including cult leader Shoko Asahara.
The Sarin attack, Japan's worst terror incident, killed 13 people and injured thousands more.
The executions took place at a Tokyo detention house on Friday morning.
Japan does not give prior notice of executions, but they were later confirmed by the justice ministry.
I believe this incident, along with the Kobe Earthquake, affected the production of this series.
