The incident took place in an international call centre four days ago but the complaint to police was made today, a senior police official said.

According to the complaint, some woman employee found the spy-camera in a packet of freshener, which was hanging in the ladies restroom in the office four days.

"When one of the women entered the lavatory they saw something blinking in the odonil packet. On closer scrutiny, she found out that it was a camera and informed the company management," the official said.

According to L Lamak Maram, President of Naga students Union who is helping the victims, the women employees confronted the company management demanding that they be shown the footage.

The company assured they will look into the matter, he claimed and added that they told the employees that a helper in the organisation was responsible for the installation of camera.

A case has been registered and further investigations are on, police said.

The company has about 120 employees and 60 per cent of them are from the North eastern states.

"It is very demeaning and we don't know for how long this has been going on. Some people have seen the footage, which has blurred images of women," an employee said.
