A PEEPING Tom has been banned from owning a camera phone for a year - after he secretly filmed a woman in an airport toilet.

Samuel Ong, 19, sneaked into a female toilet at Singapores Changi Airport earlier this year and used his camera phone to snap shots of a woman from under the cubicle door.

Banned

The woman caught him and reported him to the police.

Ong pleaded guilty to the filming his victim and was banned from having a camera phone.

He must also do 60 hours of community service, observe a curfew as part of his sentence and continue psychiatric treatment, the Straits Times reported.

Ongs lawyer pleaded for leniency saying that he was a good student and that he regretted bringing shame to his family.
