An army major who recommended the overthrow of the government to
clean up political corruption was dismissed, the Defense Agency said. The
dismissal of Maj. Shinsaku Yanai, 45, marked the first time an officer of
the Self-Defense Forces has been fired because of a published article,
agency officials said. Yanai made his comments in the Oct. 15 issue of
Shukan Bunshun, a right-leaning news magazine.
