A training center in Guangdong Province is suspected of brainwashing members and coaxing them into promiscuous sex as a therapy to relieve tension. |
A so-called Tantra training center in a dilapidated house located deep inside a mountain in south China's Guangdong Province has been busted by local police and watchdog on suspicion that it brainwashed members and coaxed them into promiscuous sex as a therapy to relieve tension.
A woman member surnamed Cheng, who was assigned to lure people to register for the rather expensive training programs, has been detained by police, with the facility shut down.
Qin Mingyuan, the "master and mentor" who is believed to have established the facility, remains at large, police said.
The raid took place on Tuesday after an undercover investigative story by Yangcheng Evening News, a local Guangdong news outlet, drew public attention. A reporter from the newspaper pretended to be an interested client and participated in some courses to observe the facility's operations. The reporter also talked with some members and facility workers, including the woman under detention.
The media investigation showed the facility charged exorbitant rates for variously-themed "spiritual and body training" courses. During the classes, members, who were given strangers as partners, were invited to indulge in intimate movements such as blowing wind at and rubbing each others' body parts as part of the exercise.
