A 25-year-old man has been arrested following an incident at the Canberra Centre yesterday morning (Friday, July 6).

Police will allege that around 11am the 25-year-old Italian national entered a store in the Canberra Centre where he took video footage of a 17-year-old girl who was changing clothes in one of the change rooms.

Canberra Centre security staff detained the man until police arrived.

Police attended the store and seized the man’s mobile phone and laptop. He was arrested and taken to the ACT Watch House where he was charged with an Act of Indecency without Consent.

He will face the ACT Magistrates Court this morning, where bail will be opposed.

CT continued the story this morning. Something like 70 upskirt-type videos split between the phone and laptop. Preferred method was apparently placing the phone in a shopping basket.

When he gets back to Italy, his holiday snaps of Australia will be titled “Up Skirt Down Under”

Spionaggio pervertire

Sitting outside change rooms while filming underage girls with a mobile phone AND laptop? Yeah, I don’t think anyone was going to notice that. Greasy bastard.

An Italian national indeed, funny how we never say it was an Australian national when they are the perps or is that pervs?? Certainly a naughty act but chucking hin in the slammer? Really, a bit over the top, or was it under the door?

This being Australia the assumption would be that he was an Australian national unless otherwise specified.

Wtf? You think it’s ok to invade young girls privacy like that?

I bet he didn’t arrive on a boat via Christmas Island either.

He should have asked her before making the porno… (Lets forget shes underage and that he should’ve been charged with child porn).
Or do we pick and choose who these laws get applied too?

“il tomasso guardone” could be a literal translation of peeping tom but I don’t think it would be considered offensive in Italy. If there was an event for voyeurism and perving in the Olympics the Italians would get the gold medal.
