Tokitsukaze stable hazing scandal
The Tokitsukaze stable hazing scandal occurred on June 26, 2007, when a seventeen-year-old junior sumo wrestler who fought under the ''shikona'' of Tokitaizan, collapsed and died after a training session at Tokitsukaze stable's lodgings in Inuyama, Aichi prefecture. It subsequently emerged that he was beaten with a beer bottle and a metal baseball bat at the direction of his trainer.〔(Brutal Beating Death Brings Sumo's Dark Side to Light ), ''The Washington Post'', March 10, 2008.〕 Saito's cause of death was originally reported as heart failure, but his father insisted on an autopsy, which revealed the abuse.
Saito's stable master, Jun'ichi Yamamoto, admitted to beating the seventeen-year-old novice, who had only been in sumo for three months, and ordering other sumo wrestlers to beat him, due to Saito's "vague attitude" towards the sport. It was also reported that Saito had run away from the stable on a number of occasions. Yamamoto was expelled by the Japan Sumo Association. Yamamoto and three wrestlers from the stable were arrested in February 2008 and were charged with manslaughter. In May 2009 Yamamoto was sentenced to six years in prison. The incident brought substantial political pressure to the governance of the sport in Japan.
