Man calmly sets himself on fire in protest at Japan's defence policy

Dressed in a suit and sitting on a mat (left), a man doused himself in gasoline and set himself ablaze on the metal framework of Tokyo's Shinjuku railway station (top right).
The man, who suffered serious injuries before being rescued, was protesting against moves by Japan's Cabinet to approve a proposal calling for the right to a 'collective self-defence,' which would allow Japan to play a more assertive role in international security.
