B.C. restaurateur accused of using bathroom camera turns himself in to sheriffs

VANCOUVER – A restaurant co-owner charged with observing or recording people while they were naked on a tiny camera allegedly hidden in a bathroom has turned himself into police.

Allan Bosomworth was charged Sept. 11 with one count of “secretly observing nudity in a private place,” and just two days later was named in an arrest warrant.

Vancouver Police Const. Brian Montague says Bosomworth turned himself in to sheriffs at the Vancouver provincial courthouse Wednesday and was escorted to the Vancouver jail.

The offence allegedly took place at the now-closed Two Chefs And A Table restaurant between Dec. 14, 2012 and Dec. 18, 2012.

The Crown alleges Bosomworth observed or recorded people in a place in which they could reasonably be expected to be nude.

Bosomworth was freed on $1,000 bail and will return for a provincial court hearing Oct. 16. (The Canadian Press)
