British newspaper report on North Korean Kidnapping

• North Korea finally admits kidnapping Japanese, The Independent, 18 September 2002, p. 12.

This news, which now dominates Japanese mass media naturally, has been on the top of the "World News" section of the Independent. Two photos were on the page: Megumi Yokota, who was a schoolgirl when she went missing in the 1970s and is the youngest of all the abductees, and her father Shigeru, who appeared at a press conference after being informed of Megumi's death. The latter photograph was delivered by AP, and was also used on BBC News Online's article.
