Two Dutch bloggers of “Geen Stijl” blog were caught for filming under women’s skirts in a car park in order to warn the public of the intimate views afforded by see-through stairs.

According to the blog (in Dutch language), Rutger and Twan have to appear in court for filming people without permission, after someone complained. However, the bloggers claim that the women knew about their filming.

The subterranean car park in the northern Dutch town of Heerhugowaard has a transparent ceiling in its stairwell, allowing people to look up at shoppers passing above.

The Geen Stijl blog said they were only filming to see whether the local council had done anything about the transparent ceiling after the issue was brought to their attention several months before.

The two bloggers could face a two-month prison sentence, according to Dutch news agency ANP. (Reuters)
