Tetsuya Yamagami, an unemployed 41-year-old, identified as the suspect on suspicion of murder on Friday after a man was seen in videos repeatedly shown on Japanese television calmly approaching Japan’s longest-serving prime minister from behind and firing.
“My mother got wrapped up in a religious group and I resented it,” Kyodo and other domestic media quoted him as telling police. Nara police declined to comment on the details reported by Japanese media of Yamagami’s motive or preparation.Yamagami jury-rigged the weapon from parts bought online, spending months plotting the attack, even attending other Abe campaign events, including one a day earlier some 200 km away, media said.
One of his neighbors, a 69-year-old woman who lived a floor below him, saw him three days before Abe’s assassination.“I said hello but he ignored me. He was just looking down at the ground to the side not wearing a mask. He seemed nervous,” the woman, who gave only her surname Nakayama, told Reuters. “It was like I was invisible. He seemed like something was bothering him.”A Vietnamese woman living two doors down from Yamagami who gave her name as Mai, said he appeared to keep to himself.
