Accused U.S. Army deserter Charles Jenkins' illness is not serious, but he will need to stay hospitalized due to severe stress, his doctor said Friday.
Jenkins, the American husband of repatriated Pyongyang abductee Hitomi Soga, was transported to Tokyo from Jakarta on Sunday as "an emergency and humanitarian" measure by the Japanese government, which had arranged for his family reunion in Indonesia.
He is being treated at Tokyo Women's Medical University Hospital in Shinjuku Ward.
