It&#x27;s just a business... Biruin mo safety ng mga bata tine-take advantage ng some individuals?&quot; he said.(We will shut it down. It&#x27;s just a business... Can you imagine some individuals take advantage of a minor&#x27;s safety?)&quot;Ikaw ba anak mo gusto mo mapanood sa video na nakahubad? Unfair naman &#x27;yun sa mga magulang,&quot; he said.(Do you want to see your child on video naked? That&#x27;s unfair to parents.)The order was issued after the arrest of 69-year-old Noe Nodalo, who allegedly installed a hidden camera inside a bathroom of a female dormitory in Sampaloc, Manila.He is facing charges for violation of Republic Act No. 9995 or the Anti-Photo and Video Voyeurism Law, according to Manila’s Public Information Office.
