The perpetrator himself declared to the police that his mother went bankrupt because of this donationthe Yomiuri newspaper and other Japanese media reported.
Tomihiro Tanaka, president of the Japanese Family Federation for World Peace and Unification, known as the Unification Church, told reporters in Tokyo today, according to the Athens News Agency, that Yamagami’s mother was indeed a member of the church.
Tanaka declined to comment on the woman’s donations, citing the ongoing police investigation.
Police have confirmed that Yamagami harbored hateful feelings against an organization, which authorities have not named.
