A 23-year-old Indian has been sentenced to six months in prison and ordered deportation for filming a female interior designer with his cell phone while she was using the restroom at her workplace.
The salesman, who was identified only with his initials B J, confessed that he had started video mode and filmed woman while she was using restroom, Gulf News reported.
B J sneaked into the ladies' room and secretly filmed the Filipina designer while she was undressed at a government building in August last year.
The Dubai Court of First Instance convicted him of molesting the 32-year-old designer by filming her undressed against her will.
The accused pleaded guilty and asked for mercy when he showed up in court.
Prosecutors accused B J of molesting the Filipina and breaching her modesty and privacy when he filmed her naked. He was also charged with entering a women-only place, the report said.
Presiding judge Mohammad Jamalthe said the accused will be deported after serving his punishment.
Yesterday's ruling remains subject to appeal within 15 days.
