A video of the Beatles captured by Tokyo's Metropolitan Police Department during the British rock band's 1966 tour to Japan has been disclosed.

The release came after a disclosure request filed with the MPD eight years ago by a nonprofit organization working to promote information disclosure in the city of Nagoya and a related lawsuit. The faces of people in the video, excluding the Beatles members, have been censored by the police department.

The silent 35 minute 40 second black-and-white video was captured between June 29 and July 3, 1966, when the Beatles stayed in Japan, and is titled "security operations during the Beatles' visit to Japan."

A few days after the visit of the Beatles, John Coltrane arrived.
