Man Banned from Touching Muscles

In one of the most bizarre criminal cases I've seen in quite some time, behold the sorry fate of Akinwale Arobieke, a 45-year-old man from Liverpool. The court has banned him from feeling people's muscles and asking them to exercise in public.

Merseyside Police applied to Liverpool Magistrates' Court for a Sexual Offences Prevention Order against Arobieke - despite the fact he has not been convicted of a sex crime...

Under the terms of the order Arobieke cannot touch, feel or measure muscles or ask people to do squat exercises in public. Neither can he approach or do paid or voluntary work with any young person under 18...

[H]e cannot loiter near educational establishments, gyms or sports clubs.

I am not educated in legal affairs. However, it seems to me the judge got it all wrong in this case. It strikes me that if he has been convicted of 15 counts of harrassment in regards to "feeling people's muscles and asking them to exercise", he has an unhealthy fascination with muscles. Rather than simply punishing the fellow, he should be put under psychiatric evaluation. This isn't simple sexual deviation, and in fact, it is questionable whether there is sexual motivation at all.

Afterall, if he is treated as, let's say, an obsessive-compulsive, perhaps he won't ever harrass people again.
