Former Zaftigs Employee Arrested For Allegedly Planting Hidden Camera In …

BOSTON (CBS) – Police have arrested a former Zaftigs employee accused of placing a hidden camera inside the Brookline restaurant’s bathroom.

Brookline police said Rogerio Sores-Fernandes turned himself him in after a warrant was issued for his arrest.

He was arraigned on charges of photographing an unsuspecting nude person.

The incident was reported to police on Monday, though the camera was allegedly discovered by restaurant employees several months ago.

Earlier this week, police told WBZ-TV the restaurant could be held responsible for failure to report the hidden camera.

“The restaurant did not report this to us,” Lt. Philip Harrington said on Tuesday. “As a result they could face ramifications down the road. I don’t know.”

Sores-Fernandes is a 38-year-old Allston resident. Police say he worked at Zaftigs at the time the camera was placed in the handicap bathroom.
