A man has been charged after reportedly entering changing rooms in shops and taking inappropriate pictures of women with his mobile phone.

Police were alerted amid concerns of suspicious activity in Canterbury city centre on Monday, where officers detained the suspect after reviewing CCTV inside stores.

Chanwit Jadtanim, 28 and of Palamon Court in the city, has since been charged with three counts of voyeurism against two complainants.

Police say the upskirting incidents reportedly took place without the women’s knowledge on May 14 and 19, and June 30, when he was arrested.

Jadtanim appeared before Margate Magistrates’ Court yesterday and has since been released on bail.

He is next expected to appear at Canterbury Crown Court in August.
