Neumarkt: Unknown filmed girls in the palace pool - police investigated

Important measures to protect young people in public institutions

An incident in the palace bath not only shaken those affected, but also raises questions about the protection of young people in public swimming pools. While two girls, at the age of 12 and 13, were in a changing room, an unknown man held a cell phone over the wall and filmed it. Only when the girls noticed what happened could the perpetrator flee.

The Neumarkt police immediately initiated an investigation after the girls had reported the incident. This is not just an isolated case, but a sign of the urgently needed security in public institutions. The man was described as follows: he was around 170 cm tall, about 25 years old, had a strong stature and looked Mediterranean. His outfit included an olive tank top and a short black trousers.

The reaction of the police

The reaction of the Neumarkt police was prompt. On Tuesday, July 31, 2024, an employee of the outdoor pool recognized the suspect in the swimmer pool and immediately alerted the authorities. This shows how important vigilance is in such facilities. After further investigation, the identity of the 26-year-old from the urban area was confirmed, and several cell phones and laptops were ensured in his apartment, which are now to be evaluated on potential image material.

protective measures for swimming pools

to ignore this incident would be a mistake. It illustrates the need to strengthen protective measures in swimming pools. The perpetrator not only violated the privacy of the girls, but also endangered their security in an otherwise protected room. The police have already filed a criminal complaint against the man and also imposed a house ban on the entire bathing area.
