Yamagami, the 41-year-old killer, who has been identified, arrested and detained on Friday, is a former military who had served in the maritime self-defence force, the country’s equivalent of the Navy – for three years around 2005.

The killer said he attacked the former Japanese premier because he was dissatisfied with him.

Yamagami has been detained at Nara Nishi Police Station, near the site of gunshots in Nara region, western Japan on Friday.

According to reports, Yamagami is believed to be a resident of Nara and arrested on suspicion of attempted murder for shooting at Abe.
