Yahoo! News - Japanese Man Sues Over Iraq Kidnapping


Activista japones que fue secuestrado demanda a Gobierno...

A Japanese activist who was briefly held captive in Iraq has sued his own government, saying its decision to send troops to the region angered his kidnappers and was to blame for his ordeal.

Nobutaka Watanabe, 35, is seeking the equivalent of $46,000 for mental and physical hardship he suffered during his four days as a hostage, his lawyer Masatoshi Uchida told The Associated Press Wednesday.


"Mr. Watanabe believes his kidnapping was the result of Japan's military presence," said Uchida. "His captors told him that he had been taken because he was from a country that had sent troops to Iraq."



duh! Tal vez el Sr. Watanabe no ha leido la recepción que tuvieron sus compañeros de secuestro, donde el publico les ha gritado de cosas en el aeropuerto y en los programas de television... like "you shouldn't have been there in the first place"

buena suerte con la demanda... si se tardaron decadas en pagarles a las victimas koreanas de la 2nda guerra...
