A sushi chain in Gifu prefecture in Japan has filed a complaint with the police against a man who posted a viral video of a potentially harmful prank he pulled at one of its restaurants.
In the video now widely posted on social media, the young man licks the rims of teacups and the mouth of a soy sauce bottle shared with other customers in a conveyor belt sushi restaurant in Gifu.The chain’s operator, Akindo Sushiro Co., said it filed a report with police on Jan 31, according to Japanese media.
While the man and his guardian have since apologised, the company said that is not enough to deter it from taking legal action and that it will pursue both criminal and civil cases. The operator said all the teacups in the outlet have since been washed clean and the soy sauce bottles replaced.
