(c)Place of arrest or abduction or where the missing person was last seen; Eishodori, Niigata City, Niigata Prefecture, Japan

The Japanese Government confirmed this case as a kidnapping by North Korean agents in the reply to the question posed by Mr. Yoshio Yoshikawa, a Liberal Democratic Diet member, in the Audit Committee of the House of Councilors on May 1, 1997.
Although the North Korean Government had continued to deny its involvement for years, Mr. Kim Jong Il, the country’s leader, confessed to Japanese Prime Minister Junichiro Koizumi that North Korean agents had kidnapped her at the Pyongyang summit on September 17, 2002. She was stated to be dead in the report that was submitted by the North Korean delegation to the Japanese counterpart at the summit. However, this report has too many inconsistencies to believe. We reason that the North Korean Government cannot make public that she is alive because it would have unknown grave consequences to the regime.

In the letter with “Ishioka from Pyongyang” on the back of the envelope, the name of Mr. Kaoru Matsuki and the address of Ms. Arimoto were also mentioned.
Although the North Korean Government had continued to deny its involvement for years, Mr. Kim Jong Il, the country’s leader, confessed to Japanese Prime Minister Junichiro Koizumi that North Korean agents had kidnapped her at the Pyongyang summit on September 17, 2002. She was stated to be dead in the report that was submitted by the North Korean delegation to the Japanese counterpart at the summit. However, this report has too many inconsistencies to believe. We reason that the North Korean Government cannot make public that she is alive because it would have unknown grave consequences to the regime.
