Murder by relative

There was a murder in Fukuoka. Woman and her granddaughters had killed by her brother by marriage. This kind of murder by relative became conspicuous in Japan. From the statistics of the National Police Agency, 1142 cases of murder and attempted murder were in 1997 and 39% of them were between relatives. But in 2006 the ratio has risen to 47% and the number of the case was 542. One’s mate include common-law wife/husband was the largest victim, next comes parents then children, brothers and sisters, and the other. Many suspects said they had a grudge against the victims. Complicated matters between relatives are much more troublesome than unrelated people.

I know that these days the cases people are killed by relatives are getting more and more. A study shows that the possibility of being killed by relatives is higher than by others. It is a very sad fact. I maintain that nobody is never allowed to kill or hurt others even if streesed out or whetever. We are now needed to think about the preciousness of human lives again.
