Pervert secretly videotaped women bathing

Police are investigating an incident where a youth allegedly hid a mobile phone in the bathroom of a women’s hostel to secretly record its inhabitants in Watupitiwala.

One of the four women had spotted the camera and removed it from its hiding place on Friday.

Thereafter, the youth had threatened the four women with a knife and demanded they hand over the phone.

However, he was forced to flee the scene when the landlady accompanied by a neighbour had arrived at the hostel when they heard the commotion.
