on Tuesday demanded Russia apologise for detaining a diplomat over alleged espionage, denying the charge and accusing Moscow of blindfolding and pinning the man down in 'unbelievable acts'.Motoki Tatsunori, a Japanese diplomat based in the eastern city of Vladivostok, was deemed 'persona non grata over illegal intelligence activities', top government spokesman Hirokazu Matsuno told reporters, citing the Russian foreign ministry.'The official was blindfolded, with pressure applied to both his hands and head so he was unable to move while being detained, and then he was questioned in an overbearing way,' Matsuno said.
