Hitomi Soga, one of the five Japanese abducted by North Korea in 1978 who returned to Japan a year ago, expressed frustration Wednesday at the way the government has handled her case.
"If there are no developments, nobody contacts me," Soga told a news conference in her hometown of Mano on Sado Island on the first anniversary of her homecoming. "I don't know who I can trust and there have been times I felt deserted.
"I want the government to use every possible means to solve the abduction issue," she said.
