                 A Japanese man set himself on fire in central Tokyo on Sunday after giving a speech opposing Prime Minister Shinzo Abe's plan to reform the country's pacifist constitution, police and reports said.

             The man was taken to hospital with burns and his condition was not immediately known, police added, without giving further details.
