Recently, UK police uncovered a shocking cult that has taken the internet by storm. Unlike typical cults that use religion for brainwashing, this group’s members joined voluntarily, united by a singular, disturbing goal: self-castration.
The Arrests
Between December 7 and 10, 2021, London police raided a residence in Finsbury Park, arresting seven members of the “Nullo” group. These men, aged 30 to 60, had already castrated themselves and gathered to watch others undergo the same procedure.
The Leader
The group was led by a 44-year-old Norwegian man known as “The Eunuch Maker.” He admitted to castrating dozens of men and was arrested for conspiracy and causing grievous bodily harm. He has since been released on bail. 
The Nullo Movement
The “Nullo” group, short for “genital nullification,” refers to individuals who voluntarily remove their genitalia. This movement, influenced by subcultures, sees its members as genderless, neither male nor female.
Global Reach
Estimates suggest there are 10,000 to 15,000 such individuals worldwide, though the exact number remains unknown. These people often feel a deep desire to remove their genitalia, waking up daily wishing it would disappear.
The Business of Castration
The Norwegian leader turned his gruesome practice into a business. He recorded the procedures and streamed them on the dark web, charging viewers for access. He even advertised on Twitter, drawing the attention of UK police.
Police Investigation
Authorities spent three days searching the property, seizing computers and other equipment. Neighbors were shocked by the police presence, unaware of the dark activities happening next door.
Media Frenzy
Major UK media outlets like the Daily Mail and The Sun quickly picked up the story, uncovering more details. This is the first known Nullo group in the UK, but the idea of live-streaming castrations may have been inspired by similar events in Japan.
A Japanese Precedent
In 2012, Japanese artist Mao Sugiyama castrated himself on his birthday and later sold his genitalia as a culinary experience. This bizarre event gained significant attention but eventually led to legal issues.
Public Reaction
The news has left the public in shock, with many drawing parallels to fictional stories like “Game of Thrones.” The extreme nature of these acts highlights the dark and often dangerous subcultures that exist online.
Conclusion
The arrests of the Nullo group members have shed light on a disturbing trend. While self-castration remains a fringe practice, the ease of sharing such acts online poses significant challenges for law enforcement and society at large.
This shocking case serves as a reminder of the dark corners of the internet and the extreme lengths some will go to in pursuit of their beliefs.
