Former Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe has been shot dead while delivering a speech. The identity of the assassin, whose bullet hit Shinzo in the chest, has been revealed. According to news agency sources, Tetsuya Yamagami, a 40-year-old man from the western Japanese city of Nara, told investigators he was unhappy with Shinzo. That’s why he plotted to kill him.
