Toshiaki Mukai (Japanese: 向井 敏明; June 3, 1912 – January 28, 1948) was a Japanese Army officer during the Second Sino-Japanese War. Mukai is best known for his involvement in the Nanking Massacre (1937–1938), where he was implicated in atrocities against Chinese civilians and prisoners of war. After Japan’s surrender in World War II, he was tried for war crimes by the Nanjing War Crimes Tribunal and executed in 1948.[1]
