Greek police arrested a 53-year-old man on Tuesday after he was found to possess a significant amount of video footage recorded from a hidden camera in a women's restroom at a store. The arrest was made by officers from the Department for the Protection of Minors in response to information regarding an individual allegedly holding child pornography material. The suspect is facing multiple charges, including child pornography, unlawful recording of a private act, and violations of weapon laws.

During a search of the suspect's residence, authorities discovered a cache of digital devices that contained the incriminating video recordings, along with child pornography materials. Additionally, the police confiscated a .22 caliber pocket gun, 50 rounds of ammunition, pepper spray, and five surveillance cameras. The discovery of such materials has raised significant concerns regarding privacy violations and the exploitation of vulnerable individuals.

Following his arrest, the man was brought before the competent prosecutor, where charges were formally filed against him. This incident highlights ongoing issues related to voyeurism and child exploitation in Greece, prompting discussions about the need for stricter regulations and prevention measures to protect the public, particularly women and children, from such heinous acts.
