Ten people are sitting in two parallel rows 1 and 2. J, K, L, M and N are sitting in row 1 facing south, and Q, R, S, T and U are sitting in row 2 facing north, in such a way that each member in row 1 faces a member of row 2. Only two people sit to the left of Q. J faces an immediate neighbour of Q. M sits to the immediate left of J. The one who faces K sits to the immediate left of S. Neither K nor S sit at any of the extreme ends. Only two people sit between S and T. N faces an immediate neighbour of U. Who faces R?
