In Japan, prison inmates will be given a rare privilege to watch the World Cup [soccer - from May 31 to June 30] matches on television.
This decision follows a similar provision made by co-hosts South Korea. Prison officials say because the World Cup is so popular, the inmates are allowed to watch as long as it does not affect the execution of their sentences.
