Japanese To Get Seats at War Crime Trials
Japanese civilians will be permitted to witness the war criminal trials of leading Japanese statesmen and military leaders. Two hundred seats in the balcony of the International Military Tribunal court have been reserved for Japanese. The remaining 300 balcony seats are set aside for Allied personnel.
An Army spokesman said the policy of admitting civilian personnel to the trials is in keeping with the policy of making the trials public.
