Genital-cooking Japanese man handed to prosecutors
A man who admits cooking and serving his own severed genitals to paying diners in Japan has been handed over to prosecutors on an allegation of indecent exposure, Tokyo police said. Criminal papers against the 23-year-old man and three other people who helped organize the event were sent to the Tokyo district public prosecutors’ office, the Metropolitan Police Department (MPD) said, without naming them. But police did not question the dishing out of the genitals, possibly because there is no law against cannibalism in Japan. In an email to AFP in May, he confirmed the event had taken place and said it was organized to raise awareness about “sexual minorities, x-gender, asexual people”. An MPD spokeswoman said that the four people conspired to “openly display the (illustrator’s) severed male genitals to the assembled 71 guests” at a music club from 7 pm to 10 pm on May 13. “Every one of them has admitted that they did it,” she said.
If convicted of indecent exposure, a crime known as the display of obscene objects in Japanese, they can be jailed up to two years and/or fined up to 2.5 million yen (32,000 dollars) each.
