Beginning in September of last year, Minoru Inoue, an employee at a public works-related company in Numata City, allegedly used cameras installed in a pair of glasses and a wristwatch to take tosatsu, or voyeur, footage of three women, two of whom are acquaintances.
Inoue, who has been charged with violating a public nuisance ordinance, admits to the allegations. “I wanted to see the women,” the suspect is quoted by police.
The center of frame of the glasses included a hole in which a micro camera had been inserted. Another camera was inserted in a small hole in the dial of the wristwatch.
In locating the women, the suspect attached a GPS tracking device to their vehicles.
The matter came to light after one of the women consulted with police after discovering a transmission device, according to the Sankei Shimbun (Sept. 14).
