OP:-
The Brits had their revenge, ensuring the execution of the Japanese commander in circumstances which did the presiding authority little credit, and in consequence establishing the Yama****a Standard.
The General in question was General Seishiro Itagaki and the Tribunal that tried him (principally for War Crimes in Manchuria, as well as the catch all of waging aggressive war), was held under the authority of Supreme Commander for the Allied Powers (ie MacArthur) rather than Supreme Commander South East Asia Command (ie Mountbatten). If the British were out for revenge for surrendering Singapore they would have hung Yama****a, they didn't, the Americans did.

Rather bemused by this departure from the thread OP re pilots involved in Extraordinary Rendition, or even the wider theme of the legality (none!) of Extraordinary Rendition itself and what is to become of those still held in Extraordinary Rendition, but you are the OP and the mods are the mods so...
PS Did I mention Extraordinary Rendition?
