PG Dental Student Ibrahim Apprehended For Secretly Recording Woman Tenant With Spycam

In a disturbing incident that unfolded in Royapuram, Chennai, a postgraduate dental student was apprehended for illicitly recording a woman while she was bathing in her home. 

The perpetrator was identified as Ibrahim (36), currently pursuing post-graduation in Dental studies. The accused strategically placed a pen camera near the bathroom of the tenant’s residence, taking advantage of the absence of occupants to capture footage.

Living with her husband and child, the woman became suspicious upon discovering the spy camera pen. She quickly handed it over to her husband for examination. Upon realizing the true nature of the pen, which turned out to be a covert surveillance device equipped with a camera, they filed a complaint with the Royapuram police station regarding the incident. As a result of the complaint, Ibrahim was taken into custody, and investigations are currently in progress.

This incident is reminiscent of the incident in 2019 at an Airbnb in Chennai where a family made a disconcerting discovery – a hidden camera was disguised as a smoke detector in their living room. The increasing affordability of such cameras, disguised as everyday objects like smoke detectors and clocks, poses a growing risk.
