Tomoko Matsumoto the wife of infamous cult leader Shoko Asahara was released from prison after serving six years this week, reports Mainchi Daily News.
Aum was responsible for the 1995 gas attack on Tokyo’s subway system that killed 19 and injured thousands.
Matsumoto’s husband (a.k.a. Chizuo Matsumoto) remains in prison and it’s doubtful that he will ever be released. Instead, the cult leader will probably end his days there with a death sentence.
Asahara’s wife says she is no longer connected to the cult and wants a divorce, but her estranged husband isn’t cooperating.
However, if Mrs. Matsumoto will just be patient she should be a widow soon enough.
