MMS terror hits trial rooms in Ahmedabad

MMS terror hits trial rooms in Ahmedabad
Ahmedabad:

In a trial room, checking out that new outfit? Be careful. Pictures of you changing in and out of your clothes can become an MMS clip for the porn market. That's exactly what has happened to hundreds of customers in Ahmedabad.

Hundreds of MMS clips were clandestinely shot in trial rooms across shops and showrooms in Ahmedabad. As customers were trying out clothes, they were shot and clips found their way to the porn market. Ahmedabad police has busted the racket and have arrested its kingpin Ashfaq Chhipa.

"Preliminary investigations show many of these clips are shot in trial rooms. But we still don't know the exact locations," said investigating officer R G Patel.

Police say men in Chhipa's gang, most probably, are the cleaning staff who have easy access to changing rooms. They installed spy cameras, not just in malls, also hotels rooms and restaurants. Video clips were circulated and sold at Rs 50 to Rs 100 per clip.

"In stores it's difficult to track spy cams unless a customer suspects something amiss. Even for the police, it's difficult to search every trial rooms," said Anshu Mathur, General Manager, Himalaya Mall.

So next time you are trying out that new dress, beware. Scan the room carefully, or else you could be the next victim.
