Police in Fukuoka have arrested a 38-year-old man on suspicion of voyeurism and disturbing the public peace after he placed a spy camera in the women’s toilet cubicle in several cafes.

According to police, Yuya Ebisawa, who works for a music company, has admitted placing the camera in toilets in several cafes in Chuo Ward between Nov 11 and March 4, Kyodo News reported.

An employee at one cafe spotted the camera and notified police who staked out the cafe until Ebisawa came to retrieve it.

Police said Ebisawa has admitted to the charge and quoted him as saying he placed the camera in the toilets to satisfy his sexual urge. He also told police he sold video footage from the camera online to make extra money.

I suspect in at least one cafe his spy camera was not the only one, and that was his downfall.

Did he dress as a woman to go into the female toilets, take a chance and go in dressed as a man hoping not to get caught or go in when the places were closed? Just curious.

Walk into video stores in Japan and there will be a curtained off area where thousands of DVDs are housed; enough to satisfy the most ardent pervert with all manner of perversions on offer-all legal!

Yes including footage from the cameras of people like this man.

What video stores?

This act by itself is a whole seperate charge. A more serious charge than the voyeurism because he is selling these videos without the consent or knowledge of the victims. He's making a profit off of the privacy of these women. I hope he gets the whole court thrown at him for this disgusting perv act.
