Apparently our JGSDF second lieutenant in this story climbed up to the 4th story of a building next to the embassy, climbed out the window and jumped over the wall aiming to grab a tree to stop his fall, only he either missed the tree or didn't grab it properly. Whatever the case instead of doing an assassin's creed he hit the ground and broke his leg, so don't think he actually put up much of a resistance.This story reminds me of older stories of Chinese hijacking inside China.
Those were rare stories, but usually what happens in a Chinese hijacking of a passenger plane, the crew is taught and instructed to fight on the spot. That was the policy apparent back then.
I read about it, and only saw one picture in my entire life about that. All I remember seeing in the picture was the standard airplane seats with some passengers, and the flight attendants, two guys and two women going after someone who was surrounded so we did not get a good view of the fight.
It was kung fu fighting in the sky.
So when they did not provide details of what happened to that would be assailant, then we can only speculate on what happened to him, as he was apparently turned over to local authorities.
For that to happen, how was the assailant subdued?

If this isn't rooted in Japanese militarism and thus serious matter it would have been hilarious in a Mr Bean sort of way.
