Jul 26 (Kyodo) - Bereaved families and local officials remembered Monday the victims of a stabbing rampage at a care home for the mentally disabled near Tokyo five years ago that became one of Japan's worst mass murders.
Kanagawa Gov. Yuji Kuroiwa and Kazuma Otsuki, who heads a group formed by the families of victims, offered flowers at a cenotaph on the grounds of Tsukui Yamayuri En, where a former employee killed 19 residents and injured 24 others, on July 26, 2016. Two employees were also hurt.
