Talk:Purple Aki

This article was nominated for deletion on 27 October 2006. The result of the discussion was keep.

Sounds so amazing it does need to be kept online. It needs amendment and cleaning-up though- the guy has been accused of things that he has not been charged with; and it appears he is just someone with obsessive-compulsive disorder and personality issues that schoolboys have- in typical schoolboy style- interpreted as paedophilia and homosexuality.

Good god. I thought this was a hoax, but no, the external link checks out. DS 23:36, 6 Apr 2005 (UTC)

I'm so ammused that someone has taken the time and effort to put this page togther. Purple Aki, is an important part of Scouse Mythology. This page should stay.

               Agreed. 88.107.24.32 23:33, 27 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Needs research to find correct crime

Sorry, I have to remove tags. Not exact crime as tagged. Wish I had more time to research this case and apply correct tag. I hope someone else will do the research.--FloNight 20:21, 11 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

The article at the moment is very confusing. It labels Arobieke as a sex offender, but he was convicted of no sex crime. It says he was convicted of sexual harassment (he wasn't) of hundreds, and then in the next sentence says he was convicted on only 15 counts of harassment and one count of intimidation. 80.93.170.99 12:27, 30 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Why is this page marked for deletion? He is a real person well known throughout Merseyside.

purple aki

this man is a sexual preditor who terrorised young boys in birkenhead for years. The rumour about 'purple aki'chasing a young boy which ultimately led to his death is true. the boy was 15 years of age and had been harrassed by 'purple aki' for months. the boy eas on a day out with friends in new brighton when purple aki turned up the boy was so terrified he ran to the train station where he had intended to hide from 'purple aki' he didnt jump or fall and he wasnt pushed he hid at the side of the train. not realising that the track was live. purple aki didnt not kill him but he instilled a fear into the boy that ultimately resulted in his death the name'purple aki' puts fear into boys all over the the north west its about time he should pay for what he has done.

I know - I live in New Brighton. But if you can find a reliable source for this, you're a better man than I am! And better than the Police, given that Aki was never convicted (I don't know that he was even charged) of killing Gary Kelly. The only references online mentioning Gary Kelly's death are people relating the story of Purple Aki in forums. 80.93.170.99 09:41, 4 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

'Jacob Milroy'

I've removed this story from the article, as no citation has been provided, and no 'Jacob Milroy' exists on the UK electoral role. A google search doesn't turn up anything with reference to Aki except this article. 80.93.170.99 14:31, 21 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Truth or Fiction?

I left school in 1974, and the 'Purple Aki' story was going around then! There's even someone from Australia saying they used to be told, when they were young, that 'Purple Aki' will get you if you stay out after dark. In fact, this character has appeared in places around north west England, up to twenty miles apart, all at the same time. The story is purely a 'truism' which has been blown out of proportion, but fun while it's lasted! I notice that no-one has mentioned the story of his father being a 'diplomat' and that his favourite comment was that he was 'untouchable' by the police because his father is very important. 80.192.242.187 19:37, 16 January 2007 (UTC) JemmyH.[reply]

Here we go... JemmyH the wikipedia expert strikes again. knobhead!

Why don't you claim Purple Aki as a 'notable Wiganer', eh?, seeing as he might have been to Wigan at least once, a bit like Richard Ashcroft and Arnold Schwarzenegger and the rest of the pseudo Wiganers! 80.192.242.187 13:06, 17 January 2007 (UTC) JimmyH.[reply]

Nah, he's from Toxteth. Apparently he used to bum some guy called JemmyH so hard that Jemmys brains turned to shit and he started talking all sorts of bollocks on internet websites. Aki used to tell Jemmy that with his father being a 'diplomat' he was 'untouchable' by the police because his father is very important.

What's up, nobhead? Are you jealous that Wigan can't lay claim to this mon? He's probably never heard of Wigan, never mind been there, lot's of people haven't. Get it into your 'small town mind', Wigan is just that, a 'small town'. Prick! 80.192.130.107 01:52, 19 January 2007 (UTC) JemmyH.[reply]

Why would I be jealous that a wierdo paedophile isn't from Wigan ? I never said he was, and if anything I'm glad he ISN'T from Wigan. I think you're just a bit stupid JemmyH, you read other peoples words and then make whatever you want out of it in YOUR 'small mind' to suit your own petty squabbles about Wigan. No one has even mentioned Wigan on this discussion page apart from YOU, and thats because YOU have a problem with the place... but no one else cares lad. By the way, Aki has been to wigan several times (I know people who have spotted him in Wigan) and anyone who's heard of premiership football or rugby league would have heard of Wigan. So YET AGAIN I ask you, where are you from JemmyH ? We all know it's 6 miles from Wigan because you told us that already but where ? It must be a really big and clever place going off what you've said on this site. So come on.. where are you from thats 6 miles from Wigan and is so great you f*ckin bell end?

I deleted a small selection at the end...

That read something to the extent "He's a nigger and should be shot." Hope no one minds. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 66.169.180.102 (talk) 01:51, 22 January 2007 (UTC).[reply]

'Lilac Aki From Stafford'

There is a man in Stafford who is halfcast about 48yrs old who calls himself lilac aki, he wears a gold and black cloke the colour of his team , wolves.

    He stalks turkish women in the highfields area of stafford.He as a partner in crime who they call shaft, hes like a 70s throw back....

Hi. Yes i have heard about Lilac Aki for years. My mother used to say " If you don't come in now Lilac Aki will get you" He is dead scary, gold tooth,about 6ft 4in but with chicken legs.

They closed a school early because he was hanging about outside in his high vis vest because he is obsessed with the Railway. The headmaster said its not safe for mothers to be picking up their kids when a sexual predator like that is on the prowl.

What is strange is he only goes after the big girls aged 40 plus. Anyone younger just laugh at him because they know he is disturbed.

Just remember Mums and Grannies if a big bloke in an orange vest ask's you "For your Digits" its Lilac Aki.

Lilac Aki.“urban myth in the flesh”

He is for real. Real bad guy in the flesh. I had to cross the road from him once as he was shouting "I've got the digit man, I've got the digits" at the top of his voice at 4 in the morning. Then he went on to pretend he was making a phone call to a woman saying (Bless ya,Bless ya, I'll take on your kids Bab.)this went on for ages. He walks like he has 1 foot stuck in a bucket and wears alot of fake gold " Like Mr T" He is a cross between Shaft and that 80's keep fit guy Mr Motivator but with the legs of Rod Hull's Emu.
