Muscat: A small black object on the ceiling of a changing room next to the Laboratory Department at Khoula Hospital, was found to be a hidden camera on Monday morning. The hidden camera was connected to the hospital's wireless network.

According to the official letter sent to the police station, a female employee at the hospital had entered the toilet at 7:15 a.m. and noticed a "strange black object" on the ceiling. "The employee had glanced briefly at the small black object but had not expected it to be a camera," a trusted source at the hospital told Times of Oman.

The source added that after she left the toilet, doubts had come in her mind, and she went back to identify the object. She had informed the officials at the hospital about the strange object, and they confirmed that it was a camera. However, no one knew when it was installed or who had installed it. The officials informed the Wattayah Police Station, who started investigating the issue. The source confirmed that no one had been accused in the case so far.

Global menace
In the global media, several such cases have been reported, especially as the number of malls and shopping plazas for ladies' apparel has multiplied. It has now come to light that hidden cameras are used in trial rooms for taking photos of undressed women. Some of these nude photos have found their way into the world of pornography.

A large number of marriages have been broken because of such acts by some perverts. This is also true for young, working girls, who live together in a group in rented accommodations. Hidden cameras have been found in their toilets and bathrooms. Such cases usually occur in metros and big cities. Many young girls fall victim to such tricks and are later exploited.

maybe this can help.

when inside the room, try calling from your cellphone. if you cannot get a signal or dont have a network connection, then that room could be a camera installed. The cellphone signal is blocked by this installed gadget inside the room.
