UPDATE

Updating this story on chess master Bobby Fischer's woes. Japan turned down his appeal. The story, however, has this wonderfully revealing passage. [bolding mine]
The decision was made Tuesday at the end of a two-day hearing, according to John Bosnitch, a Canadian journalist who acted as an adviser to Mr. Fischer during the proceedings. Mr. Fischer, who considers his detention “a kidnapping,” can appeal again, Mr. Bosnitch said.
Bosnitch is a colorful person. Here, here and here.
