The mastermind behind the 1995 Tokyo subway gas attacks faces execution after Japan’s supreme court rejected his last legal appeal today.
[Shoko Asahara->], who led the [Aum Shinrikyo->] cult and believed himself to be a reincarnation of the Hindu god Shiva who would bring about the apocalypse by means of the sarin nerve gas attack, could be executed within six months.
He was found guilty in 2004 of orchestrating a string of attacks that killed 27 people, including the 12 who died in the Tokyo subway attacks when Aum members boarded busy commuter trains and released bags of sarin among the passengers.
