Castration Cult’s Dark World Exposed in Police Raid

A recent police operation in north London has brought to light an underground subculture known as “nullos,” following the arrest of seven men involved in broadcasting castration procedures online. The arrests, which took place in Finsbury Park, uncovered disturbing practices within this obscure group.

The Raid and Arrests

Metropolitan Police officers conducted a four-day search in a Finsbury Park residence in December, culminating in the arrests. The procedures were reportedly carried out in a basement flat and broadcast on a pay-per-view channel. A man in his 40s, dubbed “The Eunuch Maker,” was among those arrested for conducting these castrations. Following the arrests, all suspects were released on bail​​​​.

Origins and Practices of the Nullos Subculture

The term “nullos,” short for genital nullification, refers to individuals, mostly men, who voluntarily undergo the removal of their penis and testicles. This subculture gained notoriety with Japanese artist Mao Sugiyama, who had his genitals removed and served them as a meal to paying guests at a dinner in Tokyo in 2012. Sugiyama, who is asexual, voluntarily underwent the procedure and was charged only with indecent exposure, as cannibalism is not illegal in Japan​​​​.

Diversity within the Nullo Community

Those identifying as nullos engage with their community worldwide through online forums. The methods of becoming a nullo vary, with some opting for professional surgical procedures, while others use amateur “cutters” or self-mutilate. A segment of the nullos, known as “smoothies,” undergo procedures to achieve a fully smooth groin. Interestingly, the subculture is not exclusive to men; there have been instances where women have also volunteered for extreme forms of genital mutilation​​.

Conclusion

This recent raid in London has shed light on the disturbing practices of the nullo subculture, a community that remains largely hidden and controversial. The broadcast of such extreme body modifications raises questions about the legality and ethical implications of such actions, as well as concerns about the mental health and well-being of those involved.
