BBC Eye Investigations uncovers an ugly business of sexual assault for sale. \n\nWe find websites selling thousands of videos of men sexually abusing women on trains, buses and other crowded public places across East Asia. You can even order your own tailor-made assault on these sites. \n\nThey are run by a shadowy figure hailed as a guru by an online community of perverts - but who is he? \n\nThe hunt leads us to Japan, where sexual assault in public is known as 'Chikan.'\n\nWe take you inside this dark and twisted world to hear from the perpetrators of these horrendous crimes, and meet the women who are fighting back. \n\nWe visit a Chikan sex club, where customers can pay to legally grope women in rooms decorated like trains, and we follow plain clothes police searching for sexual predators on Japan’s metro. \n\nAnd we go undercover to expose the identity of the men running these websites and who are cashing in on sexual violence.\n
