Man arrested for cameras in toilet

Police seize 80 video clips allegedly taken from hidden cameras in Paris bar toilets

A MAN suspected of hiding miniature video cameras in the women's toilets of several bars across Paris has been arrested.

Police reportedly found 80 video clips on the 36-year-old's home computer in the Val d'Oise, taken from small cameras hidden in the cubicles.

The arrest came after one bar manager alerted police to suspicious behaviour at his bar in the 10th arrondissement.

A camera in the form of a pen was found tucked inside a cigarette packet on the toilet floor.

The man - who will appear in court on 5 June - is reported to have admitted hiding cameras in five bars in the 10th, 2nd and 1st arrondissements.
