Hell in Tokyo and the tragic story of Junko Furuta

The Junko Furuta case is a tragic story of a young girl kidnapped, raped, and tortured in Tokyo for 44 days by gang members Hiroshi Miyano, J. Ogura, and Shinji Minato. Furuta was held hostage by the Minato family, who were unaware of the crime. The kidnappers, who were convicted of gang-raping a 19-year-old girl, were sentenced to harsh sentences, with the remaining three receiving shorter sentences. The case left a lasting impact on Japanese history and highlights the dangers of allowing vulnerable girls to be raped. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
