While Wang Xianglin, 36, was being investigated for recording upskirt videos of a pregnant colleague, the police found that he had also recorded videos of another colleague expressing breast milk in the school's nursing room.

Wang pleaded guilty on Sept 16 to two voyeurism charges. His wife, who is also his bailor, turned up in court with him.

The victims, aged 30 and 34, were employed as teachers at the school during the time of his offences in 2021 and 2022. They and their school cannot be named due to a gag order to protect their identities.

The 30-year-old teacher who discovered a camera under her table, identified in court documents as the first victim, was in her third trimester of pregnancy at the time of Wang's offence against her.

Wang admitted that he wanted to take upskirt videos of her after noticing that she had worn a short dress to work in February 2022, Deputy Public Prosecutor Tay Jia En said.
