Thursday, 28 June 2012

A man who had his penis and testicles surgically removed served them up to diners at a public event at £160 a plate.

Police in Tokyo are now investigating whether Mao Sugiyama, who cooked his own severed genitals which had been frozen for two months and served them to five paying diners, has committed a crime.

The mayor of Suginami in Tokyo district, Ryo Tanaka where the event took place, said residents felt “discomfort” and “apprehension” over the incident and police confirmed there was an "an ongoing investigation".

Sugiyama, a painter in his 20s who defines himself as "asexual" confirmed the event had taken place and said it was organised to raise awareness about "sexual minorities, x-gender, asexual people", adding his private parts had been certified free of infection.
