At the end of the Second World War in the Pacific, Sugamo Prison in Tokyo was occupied by the American Army, and it became a place of execution where many former high ranking Japanese soldiers and politicians were executed. These were men who were condemned following the Tokyo Trials such as former Prime Minister Hideki Tojo and also General Doihara. But inside of Sugamo Prison these executions were carried out on the gallows. There were over 50 Japanese war criminals who were executed at Sugamo Prison by American executioners and they used a wooden gallows similar to what was used in Europe at prisons such as Landsberg. Some of the executions were very secretive due to worries about causing uprisings in post WW2 Japan.
