Six months in Japan jail for leafleting

6-month terms sought for 'prisoners of conscience' in Japan

Kyodo News / Nov 4, 2004 04:56pm.

---Prosecutors on Thursday demanded six months in prison for three activists recognized by Amnesty International as "prisoners of conscience," saying they trespassed in residential quarters to distribute leaflets opposing the deployment of Japanese troops in Iraq.

At the Hachioji branch of the Tokyo District Court, the lawyer for the three -- two men and a woman -- said they are not guilty, declaring that "It is a violation of the freedom of expression to prosecute them just because they made a political statement."

The prosecution said, "It is clearly illegal to enter other people's property without permission from the management."

But the defense argued distributing leaflets in mailboxes is common in Japan.
