Shirō Ishii

Baron Sadao Araki (荒木貞夫, Araki Sadao, 26 May 1877 – 2 November 1966) was a general in the Imperial Japanese Army before World War II. A charismatic leader and one of the principal nationalist right-wing political theorists in the late Japanese Empire, he was regarded as the leader of the radical faction within the politicized Japanese Army.

After World War II, Araki was arrested by the American Occupation authorities and brought before the International Military Tribunal for the Far East, where he was tried for war crimes. He was sentenced to life imprisonment but was released from Sugamo Prison in 1955 for health reasons (He died 11 years later).  He served then as a Minister of Education during the Konoe and Hiranuma administrations.

His grave is at Tama Cemetery, in Fuchu, Tokyo.
