Ghoul investigators Arima and Hirako were involved in the extermination of the clown-mask gang. At that time, Arima was 22 and in the Aogiri arc, he was 29, so the ghoul clown mask gang was taken down 7 years ago. In the first part of Tokyo Ghoul, they made constant references to the clown mask gang and how the investigators got rid of it, so that means it was reformed? Or maybe it wasn't fully taken down? If it was the latter, that means that the leader must have been in the 3rd ward 7 years ago. Uta can't possibly be a original member because according to Ogura's book, the clowns were active in the 3rd ward while he was in the 4th ward and known as No Face to investigators (of course, assuming Uta is in his 24-25s).
