The little happening at Comic Market 72
The 6.30 Akihabara Liberation Demo that was held on the 30th of June had a attracted a lot of criticism both good and bad. In particular, people were bringing up points on how the demonstration apparently had links to a particular radical left wing group.
The organizers then started discussing within their private mixi community on plans to attack and threaten some of the bloggers that have been criticizing the demonstration, even to the point where one of them suggests to strangle one of the bloggers who was a comiket staff member.
This information had leaked out prior to Comic Market 72 and the staff alerted the police and stepped up security in the premises. On Comiket Day 1, they caught somebody trying to take photos of the space for Shinsei Multi Oukoku, who was one of their targets.
The person taking the photos did not know anything about the plans, but he had revealed that he was asked by two of the 6.30 demonstration organizers to take the photographs. However, they did not bring charges on them, as the person taking the actual photos was underaged and was an unknowing accomplice, and ended it by banning one of the two masterminds from having a circle at Comiket in the future.
