His alleged preoccupation on stroking people’s muscles was one of the many urban tales and rumours that followed him over the years. Due of these accusations, he attracted both curiosity and horror, earning him a dubious reputation.
He earned popularity and became an urban legend in the North-West of England for his rare compulsions.
Throughout the 1980s, Aki was observed chasing teenage rugby players, urging them to touch their muscles to pose for him and even giving them training advice.
Odd behaviour:
After multiple incidences where Aki is said to have reportedly prayed on both teenagers and professional rugby players alike, what had initially appeared to be innocuous and hilarious gradually took a dark turn.
Purple Aki’ emerged an urban legend among those growing up in the Northwest of England in the 1990s, when youngsters would tell tales about a man who would want to feel your muscles. With his distinctive plastic bag in hand, Aki was frequently spotted wandering between northern train stations, and soon he was little more than the punchline of inside jokes in Liverpool, Manchester, and North Wales.
Aki periodically appeared again in neighbourhood newspapers following several run-ins with the cops. In addition, he was prohibited from doing squats for strangers and from touching, feeling, or measuring muscle beginning in 2006. Aki was forbidden from waiting near schools and gyms, and from going into Warrington, Widnes, and St. Helens, which are known for having excessive rugby presence.
