The Saanich Police Department (SPD) has announced that additional victims have come forward in the case of a man accused of secretly recording hundreds of women and girls. The investigation, which has drawn widespread attention, continues to unfold as authorities work to identify all those affected.
Investigation Expands
According to SPD officials, the number of identified victims has grown since the initial reports. The suspect, whose name has not been released, faces multiple charges related to voyeurism and invasion of privacy. Police believe there may be more victims who have not yet come forward.
“We urge anyone who believes they may have been recorded to contact our department,” said a SPD spokesperson. “Our priority is to support the victims and ensure justice is served.”

The case has sparked outrage and concern in Greater Victoria. Local advocacy groups have called for stronger privacy protections and increased support for survivors of such crimes. “This is a violation that can have lasting psychological effects,” said a representative from a local women's organization.
Police are reviewing evidence from multiple devices seized during the investigation. The suspect remains in custody pending further court proceedings.
