18+ Anime: UK man sent to prison for possession of illegal AV manga images
- 9 years ago
The Crown Court of England and Wales set a precedent a few days ago when it sentenced 39-year-old Robul Hoque to nine months imprisonment for possession of lolic-n images, albeit suspended so long as he doesn't break the law again.
"Lolicon manga,” which literally means “comics for those with l-lita complexes", are animations and comic books that involve drawings of children or child-like creatures in adult situations and relationships.
Usually they are drawn by Japanese artists and published in Japan, where it is perfectly legal to do so.
The manga comic book images in question were of young girls dressed in Japanese school uniforms engaging in s-xual acts. Police seized Hoque’s computer back in 2012 and found nearly 400 such images. Even though none were of real people, apparently the judges deemed it close enough.
In 2009 an American comic book collector named Christopher Handley pled guilty to violating a similar law that outlaws any art that depicts minors engaging in s-x acts and lacks a serious literary, artistic or scientific value.
However, the flaw with this sort of law is just like beauty itself, it’s all in the eyes of the beholder and can be open to whatever interpretation of the law that will vary with the presiding judge or jury.
