Shibuya Porn Truck Charged

The filming of an adult video, on top of a truck in broad daylight, in the middle of Tokyo, led to arrests on suspicion of public obscenity; police say AV production company “Hot Entertainment” staged a lewd performance on the back of a large dump truck driven through central Shibuya, and have conducted raids on the company’s four Tokyo offices in response.

Though apparently passersby could not see the performance occurring on the bed of the truck, those in overlooking buildings were treated to quite the spectacle, which prompted the vigourous police response.

Further investigations revealed that this was in fact a repeat performance: in the summer of last year the company undertook the same performance, though in that case the end result was a successful release in the Autumn, rather than arrest. We are also told that, perhaps rather less forgivably, the passersby and urban environs were filmed in that escapade. Via Asahi.

Japanese AV producers seem at times rather more adventurous than they are sensible, though having to work around the onerous and utterly ridiculous mosaic restrictions probably contributes to this.
