Hara Takashi
Hamaguchi's initial popularity quickly waned, and he fell victim to an assassination attempt on 14 November 1930 when he was shot inside Tokyo Station by Tomeo Sagoya, a member of the "Aikokusha" ultranationalist secret society. (Nine years earlier another Prime Minister, Hara Takashi, had been assassinated near the same place.) The head of the "Aikoku-sha" was "Seiyūkai" politician Ogawa Heikichi. The wounds kept Hamaguchi hospitalized for several months.
