Police in Tennoji, Osaka, have arrested a 31-year-old man on suspicion of filming up the skirt of a pachinko parlor employee.
According to police, Daisuke Mori, a fire department employee, hid a smartphone in a rucksack and placed it on the floor near where the pachinko parlor employee, a woman in her 20s, was standing at around 11 a.m. on Jan 27, Jiji Press reported. Police said the woman suspected something strange was going on and asked the manager to later check surveillance camera footage which showed Mori placing the rucksack near the woman’s legs.
When Mori showed up at the pachinko parlor again on Friday, the woman recognized him and called 110. Police confiscated a smartphone in Mori’s rucksack and detained him for questioning.
Police said Mori, who was arrested on Saturday for violating the public nuisance-prevention law, has admitted to the charge.

I cannot understand why Japanese Men do this. It's so childish and fetishly awkward.

why are the women wearing skirts when the males wear trousers?
Policewomen don't ear skirts on the job and pachinko parlours have a higher proportion of degenerates than regular society.
I'm not blaming the employees but the companies and the losers that go home and satisfy themselves to this stuff.

They have been around for years now. On one of those "24 hour's with the cops" TV shows, the police arrested a guy for having it on some train in Tokyo, and another on an escalator in some department store.
The technology has been around for at least a generation now.

Your opinion of "higher proportion of degenerates" is based upon what? There are no "facts" to support it.
FYI, I happen to know that many of the females who work in pachinko parlors may look like they are wearing skirts, but are not. They are wearing a type of culottes, that are actually shorts that are designed to look like a skirt.

Not me, but I defer to your expertise on the topic.

Police can catch one perv but you 'll still have 100 more on the loose. There is no ending since it is so easy to do it.
That example shows the perv was so stupid as to keep video on his phone while he could immediately put it on the cloud.
It is good to know that it always makes national news every week, showing national crime is in fact very low.
Yubaru
It hasn't made the actual national news, and probably never will. It might make one of the 24 hours cop stories, but that is highly doubtful too, as there is little drama to it!

Cheap thrills for a little boy. Hopefully the penalty is not cheap.

in a pachinko parlor regularly at 11am on Fridays. Nice job.
Fighto!
A 2-year prison stint might just teach this sicko a thing or two.

Another fireman gets caught by his pole.

For less than he wasted on the little silver balls, he could have seen everything there is to see, in the entertainment quarter, without getting arrested. But guys who miss out on stuff when they are teens,, tend to drift towards fetishes like this and pursue them into their 20s, 30s, and 40s. There is more of it in Japan as the genders are kept more separate than in the West and traditional culture mitigates against frisky experimentation in youth. It's a bit like getting stuck in puberty.

It’s not just a Japanese thing. Korean and Chinese men do the same thing. Personally, if I were hypothetically into this stuff, I’d just watch porn. Maybe it’s the thrill of possibly getting caught that drives these sickos to do it.

Never willingly give your phone or similar electronic device to the police; and do not give them your password.

That pachinko guy can’t even excuse by saying he only was in search of some additional balls. lol

Eh, that's been around for years
