Hakuho Sho, 38, was downgraded to the lowest rank for sumo elders and forced to take a pay cut.

His protege, Hokuseiho Osamu, admitted to slapping the faces of subordinates and hitting them with a broom handle.

Hakuho has apologised, saying he takes responsibility for being unable to protect the victims.

The Japan Times said that Hokuseiho, 22, also slapped junior wrestlers' backs and testicles, and ignited insecticide spray towards them.

Malcolm Gladwell had a column many years ago about how there was a lot of cheating in sumo wrestling.
