BANGKOK - A former IT manager at the Australian embassy in Thailand was sentenced on Thursday to two years in jail for installing spy cameras in women’s bathrooms at the mission.
Nayot Thamsongsana, 39, pleaded guilty to two counts of committing an indecent act, under the kingdom’s sexual and public nuisance laws. The cameras were discovered after a memory card was found on the bathroom floor in 2021, the Australian Broadcasting Corporation reported.“The court found him guilty of two counts and sentenced him to two years on each, but with his confession, the penalty was reduced by half,” a prosecutor told AFP.Sixty women had submitted statements to the police during the investigation, according to ABC.
Digital sex crimes, including the sharing of intimate pictures or videos without permission, remain relatively unusual in Thailand. AFP
