The gallows, or cell No. 13, were located away from the prison itself, in what is now a public park adjacent to Sunshine 60. A total of sixty criminals were executed (fifty-three Class B and C criminals and seven Class A criminals). All were hung at cell No. 13, except for one who was shot at a United States Army base outside Tokyo. For the list of fifty-three executed criminals, see John L. Ginn, Sugamo Prison, Tokyo: An Account of the Trial and Sentencing of Japanese War Criminals in 1948, by a U.S. Participant (McFarland & Company, 1992), 192–93.
