Rome, May 14 : Italian police have arrested a man in Venice who was allegedly wandering around St Mark`s Square and other city landmarks while secretly filming thousands of women`s bottoms, officials said on Tuesday.
The man was arrested on Saturday after police on patrol noticed him closely following a young woman while carrying a large bag hanging from his shoulder.
“He was very well dressed,” paramilitary police Capt Mario Marino said. “He followed her and when she bent over to pick up something he tried to place the tip of the bag under her skirt.”
Upon inspection, the bag revealed a sophisticated camera which the man had used to film some 3,000 women in the area over more than three years, Marino said. The bag also contained DVDs with the material filmed by the man, he said.
