JOHOR police detained a man for allegedly spying on a woman in the toilet of a supermarket in Taman Bukit Dahlia yesterday.

Seri Alam district police chief Mohd Sohaimi Ishak said in the 11am incident, the 23-year-old man was nabbed after members of the public apprehended him.

“The man had no prior criminal record. The case is being investigated under section 377D of the penal code,” he said in a statement today.

Sohaimi said police would apply for a remand order against the suspect at the Johor Baru court today to enable further investigations into the case.

Yesterday, a two-minute and 11-second video recording showing a tudung-clad man caught by members of the public while entering the women’s toilet in a supermarket went viral. – Bernama, October 23, 2023.
