(Tokyo) – Japan's system of 'hostage justice' denies criminal suspects the rights to due process and a fair trial, Human Rights Watch said in a report released today. The 101-page report, ' Japan's ‘Hostage Justice' System ,' documents the abusive treatment of criminal suspects in pretrial detention. The authorities strip suspects of their right to remain silent, question them without a lawyer, coerce them to confess through repeated arrests and denial of bail, and detain them for prolonged periods under constant surveillance in police stations.

LONDON — Charles III on Saturday was crowned monarch of the United Kingdom and 14 other Commonwealth realms after a lifetime as heir apparent to his late mother, Queen Elizabeth II. Before a congregation of about 100 world leaders and a television audience of millions, the Archbishop of Canterbury Justin Welby—the spiritual leader of the Anglican Church—placed the 360-year-old St. Edward's Crown on Charles' head as the monarch sat upon a 14th-century throne in Westminster Abbey. The historic, solemn event dates back to the time of the 74-year-old's predecessor William the Conqueror in 1066.
