A man suspected of illegally filming in a women's restroom at Korea University was arrested by police on the 17th.

Seongbuk Police Station in Seoul said that it arrested a man, identified only as A, as a flagrant offender on charges of violating the Act on the Punishment of Sexual Crimes after he was seen coming out of a women's restroom near the Korea University graduate school reading room.

A was reportedly stopped by a security guard while exiting the women's restroom that day. The security guard then called 112 and handed A over to police.

Police plan to conduct digital forensics on A's cell phone and tablet PC.

It has not been confirmed whether A is enrolled at Korea University. Police said, "We are investigating to verify the exact facts."

A Korea University official said, "We cannot disclose A's exact identity."
