A 29-year-old Chinese national has pleaded guilty to vandalizing Yasukuni Shrine in Tokyo by writing 'Toilet' in English on one of its stone pillars. The incident, which took place in May, led to charges of property damage and disrespect towards a place of worship. The defendant admitted to the act during his initial court appearance at the Tokyo District Court, stating his motivation was a desire to protect the sea. The shrine, known for honoring World War II war criminals among others, has been a site of controversy and vandalism in the past.
