Japan PM Kishida plans to sack internal affairs minister Terada -Yomiuri
Kishida made the decision to oust Terada on Saturday given increasing pressure within his party to lessen the impact on the upcoming parliament session on the second extra budget for the fiscal year through March and will discuss the procedures with aides on Sunday, Yomiuri said.
After leading his ruling Liberal Democratic Party to an election victory in July, Kishida had been widely expected to enjoy a "golden three years" with no national elections required to take place until 2025. The suspected killer has said his mother was bankrupted by the church and has blamed Abe for promoting it. The LDP has acknowledged many lawmakers have ties to the church but that there is no organisational link to the party.
