Share:

On 21 December 2023, a hidden camera scandal surfaced at two renowned beach clubs in Bali, victimizing hundreds of male tourists. A gang of sexual predators had used hidden cameras in the men’s toilet area of Finns Beach Club and Old Man’s in the Canggu area.

The team of News.au Australia know of a gang of sexual predators who use hidden cameras and are selling photos of male tourists in club toilets through the Telegram platform. More than 8,300 photos and videos are available for up to $275 to access them. News.com Australia reported that the Telegram account, which distributed the videos and photos, was created on 6 October 2023, and has been deleted since.

Within two months, over 8,560 individuals started following the Telegram account, which consistently uploads diverse videos of men urinating or defecating in the toilet every day.

The Bali police are addressing the escalating male tourists scandal at two major clubs in Bali. Tjok Bags Pemayun, Head of the Bali Provincial Tourism Office, mentioned that his team has partnered with the Bali Police to investigate the case.

The Head of Public Relations of the Bali Police, Police Commissioner Jansen Avitus Panjaitan, and his team have not yet discovered any hidden cameras in the toilets of Finns Beach Club and Old Man’s, contrary to the reports by Australian media. Police analysis indicates that the explicit videos and photos of male tourists were captured using a phone camera, not a concealed camera within the toilet area.

Both Finns Beach Club and Old Man’s remain silent and have not released an official statement regarding this incident. Additionally, the Australian Federal Police mentioned that this case is still under investigation, and they are collaborating with the Bali police.

The video confirms that two renowned football players were also among the victims. Furthermore, several other prominent figures are suspected of falling victim to this hidden camera scandal.

This sexual offence undoubtedly stains Bali’s tourism image, particularly for foreign visitors. All victims require legal protection and support when subjected to such violations, especially on holiday.
