JAPAN - TOKYO - Police have arrested an internationally renowned kinbaku master along with his bar’s staff and customers over acts of public indecency which took place in his private BDSM-themed “happening bar”.
“KUNKUN” - a BDSM-specialised “happening bar” (a type of club in which patrons engage in sexual activity with one another, or else watch the proceedings) based in Ueno - is said to have been one of Tokyo’s largest.

For good measure they also arrested the four patrons for actually performing the indecent acts in question.
Staff were subsequently charged with aiding and abetting acts of public indecency, whilst the customers face actual public indecency charges.

The logic of charging those arrested with public exhibitionism for antics which took place in a private venue is also likely to raise some eyebrows, as is their choice of victim…
