[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Yoon Jamin] Seo-gu, Gwangju Metropolitan City (Mayor Seo Daeseok) has taken active measures to eradicate illegal filming in school restrooms.

Seo-gu announced on the 6th that, to prevent the increasingly serious crimes of illegal filming within schools, it has been conducting inspections for illegal filming cameras at 15 local middle and high schools since the 4th.

The illegal camera inspections are conducted using infrared camera lens detectors and electromagnetic wave detectors.

Thorough inspections focus on places suspected of camera installation such as electrical outlets and ventilation ducts inside restrooms.

The district plans to actively support crime prevention by lending illegal filming detectors upon request from each school.

Additionally, to create a restroom environment that can be used with peace of mind, four personnel have been hired to inspect public restrooms and restrooms in multi-use facilities for the presence of illegal filming cameras.

A Seo-gu official said, “Through this inspection, we hope to alleviate the concerns of students and parents regarding illegal filming in schools and instill the awareness that installing illegal filming cameras is a serious digital sex crime,” adding, “We will continue to make efforts to create a safe living environment free from illegal filming.”
