Civil Police Open Inquiry After Hidden Camera Found in Uberaba Woman’s Bedroom

The case underscores the risk of post-separation surveillance after a protective order expired.

Overview

  • The Uberaba resident found a camera hidden in the bedroom ceiling fan mount Monday night after her daughter said she saw her father watching phone videos of the mother.
  • Civil Police opened an inquiry that runs under court secrecy at the Specialized Women's Police Station in Uberaba.
  • Military Police logged the case as unauthorized recording of sexual intimacy, which is the offense for filming someone in private without consent.
  • Officers searched but did not find the 44-year-old ex-partner, whom the woman suspects installed the device.
  • The woman unplugged the camera and was told to seek the Women’s Police Station for legal steps, following earlier reports of domestic violence and a lapsed protective order.
