The world's longest-serving death row prisoner hears from a Japanese court on September 26 if he will again face execution or finally be acquitted, a decade after obtaining a retrial of his murder conviction. Iwao Hakamada, 88, was jailed under the death penalty for 46 years until he was freed in 2014 pending retrial. (Photo by Philip FONG / AFP)
