A shocking case of voyeurism has surfaced in Gifu Prefecture, Japan, as a 24-year-old high school teacher was arrested for allegedly placing a hidden smartphone in a girls’ locker room to secretly record students changing clothes.
The suspect, who was identified as a temporary lecturer at a municipal high school in Nakatsugawa City, has admitted to the charges.
According to the police, the accused used the hidden camera in September 2023 to capture illicit footage and attempted a second act in March 2024 by pointing his phone under the skirt of a female student attending a remedial class.
The incident came to light when the victim reported the suspicious behavior to authorities.
Upon further investigation, the police discovered multiple inappropriate videos on the suspect’s smartphone, confirming his illegal activities had been ongoing for months.
Authorities suspect that additional victims may be involved, and an expanded inquiry is now underway.
