Police said Tuesday they have arrested a 26-year-old man in Osaka Prefecture on suspicion of secretly filming women in restrooms. They allegedly seized about 2,000 videos of women from him.
Toshiyuki Morikawa allegedly sneaked into women's restrooms, including at a supermarket in Osaka Prefecture, and secretly filmed three women between July and August. He sold other DVDs to three people between November 2010 and last May and received about ¥130,000.
According to the police, Morikawa, whose case has already been sent to prosecutors, has admitted earning about ¥4.5 million from sales of DVDs over the Internet during a period of about two years.
