In a shocking case of voyeurism in the national Capital, a 30-year-old man has been arrested for allegedly installing spy cameras in the bedroom and washroom of his female tenant’s home in east Delhi’s Shakarpur area.
According to the police on Tuesday, the victim, who is a civil service aspirant, was staying alone in the house for the past few months and would hand over the keys to her landlord’s son Karan before going out of town. However, suspicion arose in her mind when she noticed some unusual activity on her WhatsApp.
Deputy Commissioner of Police (east) Apoorva Gupta said that the victim discovered that her WhatsApp account was logged into an unknown laptop and promptly logged out which raised her suspicion which made her check her apartment.
A police team conducted a thorough search and found more cameras in her apartment. During interrogation, Karan admitted that three months ago, when she left for her hometown in Uttar Pradesh, she had handed over her keys to him.
Since these cameras could not be operated online and used a memory card to store videos, Karan persistently requested the woman to give the keys of her house under the pretext of repairing electrical fixtures and fans as he wanted to transfer the recorded videos from the memory card to his laptop.
