The man was caught by a father. He was filming children in a hidden camera in mid -July who were playing at the fountains. Secretly, but the father of one of the children found his behavior suspected and notified a security guard, according to the newspaper.
Eventually the police arrived, and during an interrogation the man admitted the facts. He had a subscription to Plopsaland and regularly came to De Panne to secretly film. On his computer, the police found a lot of images of small children, usually slightly scarce dressed, such as with the fountains. This showed that he had also filmed under children’s skirts, with a camera in his shoe.
