Hong Kong police have arrested a passenger on a Cathay Pacific Airways flight from Japan on suspicion of taking upskirt pictures of cabin crew members.
A witness who was on board Monday’s flight, CX563 from Nagoya, told cabin crew that a man was using a camera to take upskirt pictures of stewardesses, a source said. Staff then reported the case to police.
When the flight landed at Hong Kong International Airport at about 4pm, police officers boarded the aircraft and took the suspect and the witness away for inquiries, the source said.
Police said a foreign man, 53, was arrested on suspicion of the unlawful recording of intimate parts after the force received a report from the alleged female victim, 26, at 3.51pm.
The force said the man was currently being held for questioning. The case has been passed on to the airport district crime investigation team.
The Post has contacted Cathay for comment.
The source said a passenger appeared to have spotted a strange phone-like device stuck to a shoe worn by the suspect, who seemed to be taking photos as the crew went up and down the aisle.
