A devout Christian who was unwittingly filmed by his own camera as he hid it in a Starbucks toilet has pleaded guilty to voyeurism.
Antony Dines, 31, also admitted doing the same thing in a ladies toilet at the London law firm where he worked as an office assistant.
Dines’ arrest followed a Scotland Yard media appeal in which his image, captured as he installed the small device in a ceiling grate, was circulated.

He appeared in custody at Camberwell Green Magistrates Court.
Bespectacled Dines, wearing a dark pullover and jeans, spoke only to confirm his name, date of birth, address and nationality.
He pleaded guilty to one count of voyeurism over the Starbucks camera and a second count of voyeurism that he recorded a person doing a private act for sexual gratification.
