520 |a In 2022, former Prime Minister Shinzo Abe was killed by a man who wanted to punish him for his participation in events associated with the Unification Church, of which the assassin's mother was a member. The man alleged that his mother had gone bankrupt in 2002 because of her excessive donations to the Unification Church. Anti-cultists managed to transform the case into a prosecution that extended from the Unification Church to other groups stigmatized as "cults," primarily the Jehovah's Witnesses. It was alleged that children raised by parents who were members of "cults" (as happened to Abe's assassin) were victims of "religious abuse" and might have been mentally destabilized. Laws and regulations targeting "controversial" religious organizations were passed. A primary target of these campaigns, in addition to the Unification Church, were the Jehovah's Witnesses, accused of endangering the children's physical and mental health by separating them from the larger society, submitting them to harsh discipline, and refusing blood transfusions. The Jehovah's Witnesses reacted by opening a dialogue with the Japanese authorities. However, anti-cultists continue to attack both the Unification Church (now called the Family Federation for World Peace and Unification) and the Jehovah's Witnesses.
