MELBOURNE - A tattooist in Ipswich, Australia has been charged by the police for allegedly tattooing a 40cm penis on man’s back instead of the design he requested.
The 25-year-old victim had been visiting the 21-year-old man, an amateur tattooist, at his home in Bundamba when he was talked into getting a tattoo, the Courier Mail reported.
He wanted a yin and yang symbol with some dragons, but was instead shocked to discover the 40cm tattoo was of a penis with an obscene slogan, that had the key word misspelled.
Police said the tattooing followed an argument between the men, during which the tattooist allegedly took offence at something the other man said.
The victim has also alleged he was punched and thrown out of the house following the tattooing.
The tattooist is due to appear in Ipswich Magistrates Court on November 15 charged with two counts of assault occasioning bodily harm and one charge relating to the Public Safety Act. (ANI)
