TOKYO (TR) – Tokyo Metropolitan Police on Thursday arrested a 24-year-old university student for assaulting and emasculating a lawyer in Minato Ward, reports TBS News (Aug. 13).
At approximately 7:40 a.m., Ikki Kotsugai, a graduate student at a university in Nakano Ward, began repeatedly punching a 42-year-old attorney in the face inside the offices of a law firm in the Toranomon area. With the lawyer nearly unconscious, the suspect then unzipped the victim’s pants and used a pair of pruning shears to remove his genitals.
Kotsugai, who has been charged with inflicting bodily harm, admits to the allegations. “I cut off his genitals and flushed them down a toilet in the law office,” the suspect is quoted by police.
According to public broadcaster NHK (Aug. 13), the suspect is a former boxer at the university.
Kotsugai’s wife, who is employed at the same office, was also present. Prior to the attack, the couple and the victim had engaged in a discussion.
Police are now investigating what trouble might have existed between the suspect and victim.

TOKYO —
Japanese police have arrested a man accused of bursting into a lawyer’s office and cutting off his penis with garden shears before flushing the organ down a toilet.
Local media reports said Thursday that Ikki Kotsugai, a 24-year-old Tokyo graduate student, may have been acting out of revenge over his wife’s romantic involvement with the 42-year-old victim.
Police said Kotsugai, who was arrested shortly after the alleged attack, burst into the lawyer’s office in Tokyo’s Minato Ward at around 7:40 a.m. Thursday. He punched the unnamed lawyer several times before prying off his pants and then severing his “lower body part” with the shears.
Kotsugai told police that he flushed what was severed down the toilet.
A Tokyo police spokesman confirmed the body part in question was the man’s genitals.
