Neighbor Identified After Hidden Camera Found in Caucaia Condo

Police are probing after condominium CCTV linked resident Antônio Moreira to an October entry with authorities holding the recovered device.

Overview

  • The couple found a hidden camera under their TV on November 3 and filed a police report that same day after confirming the device was not theirs.
  • Footage the pair reviewed from the building’s cameras showed a man later identified as Antônio Moreira entering their unit on October 31 while carrying hardware consistent with installing a small camera.
  • After the case became public the suspect messaged the couple admitting he entered to look for a shoe but did not mention the camera, and the couple turned the device and related materials over to police.
  • A second resident has given a statement alleging she was filmed while showering by the same man, and the Ceará Civil Police’s 2nd Delegacia in Caucaia has opened inquiries and is conducting diligences.
  • Neighbors and reporters have tried to contact the building’s síndica and the suspect’s defense without success, and the investigation could prompt other residents to come forward and lead police to more evidence.
