Of course, it was the Koreans.

>TOKYO -- A hate speech legal expert and others have warned against believing disinformation circulating on social media claiming that "Zainichi" Korean residents of Japan were behind the July 8 assassination of former Prime Minister Shinzo Abe.

>On groundless claims such as that "the culprit is a Zainichi Korean," lawyer and hate speech expert Yasuko Morooka said, "The central government must send out the message that false rumors that provoke discrimination and violence cannot be tolerated."

>Disinformation began to spread online shortly after Abe was shot in the city of Nara during a campaign speech for a candidate in the July 10 House of Councillors election. These included posts reading, "There were foreign forces behind the shooter, including Zainichi Koreans, Chinese and Russians, and they must have been giving orders to the assassin," and, "The criminal who shot Abe was hired by China and Russia, or is a naturalized citizen or a Zainichi resident."
