Inside the prison-hanging room in Japan

The execution room of the death penalty is considered one of the most secretive places, used to execute death row inmates most quickly.

According to Mirror, the execution of the death penalty in Japan has long been secret and influenced by rituals. Japan today still retains the death penalty even though many countries around the world have removed this sentence. The latest person who died in the execution room was the artillery leader ' apocalyptic' Shoko Asahara.

Inside the death penalty execution room in Japan.

For death row inmates like Masakatsu Nishikawa, death is just to open the way to another world. The floor is clean, the light is pleasant, the sound of the Buddha is deep, smooth and elegant art in the room. Nishikawa, 61, was sentenced to death for killing four women in a horrific murder that occurred more than 25 years ago.

In the room there is a statue of Guan Yin and Bodhisattva and that is the only face of this death row seen before execution. Death row inmates will then enter the red square in the middle of the room.

This is the place where the death row inmate died with the pastor before being taken to the execution room.

The judgment execution team will wrap the rope around the prison cell. Once the time comes, the hatch opens and the death row falls into the room below and dies instantly.

Statistics for the period 2012-2016 show that 24 people were executed in Japan. Until December 31, 2017, 123 death row inmates were awaiting sentence execution. This is the highest number recorded since 2007

This is the place to observe the judgment execution process.

The latest death row death row in the room is Shoko Asahara, the "apocalyptic" cult leader, behind the sarin gas attack at the Tokyo subway station in 1995.

The attack killed 13 people and injured more than 6,000 others. Asahara was hanged along with five accomplices on July 6.7.

There are 3 buttons and the judgment team will press the button simultaneously to finish the death row in the red box.

The execution took place well and there was almost no public opinion objections, partly because Japan always kept secret the execution of the death sentence.

According to Mirror, many Japanese prisoners have to wait at least 5 years to take the sentence. There are people like Nishikawa or Asahara who have been waiting for decades, not knowing when their last day will be.

In 2010, Japanese authorities had unprecedented moves. It is to allow reporters to take photos at the death row prison as well as the execution room.

The Bodhisattva Guan Yin statue is the last face that death row inmates see before being blindfolded.

During judgment execution, 3 people will simultaneously press 3 separate red buttons. So no one knows whether or not I am the one to finish the death row. The members of the judgment execution team are also kept anonymous and changed alternately.

With this form of death, death row inmates will die from a broken neck before they can suffocate. A doctor was present directly below to declare the death row of the death row and return the body to his family.

Masahiko Fujita, who had been a "executioner" in the 1970s, revealed that the lanyard strap was carefully placed so that death row inmates would bow their heads in front of witnesses. The hands and feet of the death row inmates are also tied up in case of irregularities.

Japanese death row inmates were also given the last meal, but there was no chance to say goodbye to family and relatives in the outside world.
