A Japanese lawmaker on Thursday disclosed two photographs showing a 2014 family reunion between the parents of Megumi Yokota, who was abducted from Japan to North Korea in 1977, and Megumi's daughter, Kim Eun Gyong.

The photographs, taken during the March 10-14 meeting that year, were disclosed by House of Councilors member Yoshifu Arita.

One of them shows Shigeru, 83, and Sakie, 80, holding a baby girl — Kim's daughter and their great-granddaughter — and the other shows Kim with her hand on her grandmother's shoulder as Sakie holds the baby.
