Trainee Surgeon Fined For Filming Naked Men Showering In Brisbane

A trainee heart surgeon has been fined $800 by Brisbane Magistrates Court after he was caught secretly filming naked men in a shower block at South Bank Parklands.
26-year-old Duy Tran Le, a German national, had been in Australia on a month’s holiday to celebrate his recent graduation from medical school before flying home to begin his training in a cardiology unit.

Le filmed seven men in the space of three hours by holding his iPhone over the wall of a neighbouring shower cubicle. The men were apparently unaware, but a security guard noticed and contacted police. 
Police found the videos on his phone and he was charged with seven counts of recording in breach of privacy. 
Acting Magistrate Jason Schubert noted that these were “disgusting offences, involving a serious breach of the privacy of other adult males”, adding “I can only assume the offending was for sexual gratification purposes.”
Le’s lawyer Kate MacArthur told the court that her client had a promising career ahead of him as a surgeon, and that a conviction might jeopardise his future prospects. 
The court agreed, and after he pleaded guilty, he was released with a fine and no conviction recorded. Le is due to return to Germany on January 12.
