The New Taipei City Prosecutors' Office has detained the chairman of a cosmetic surgery chain after a pinhole camera was allegedly discovered in a smoke detector at its Banqiao branch.
Airlee Group Chairman Chang Ju-shan was detained after authorities searched multiple branches of of the company in the city.
The searches were carried out after allegations posted to social media this past week said a customer had spotted a device on the ceiling that resembled a smoke detector as she was changing her clothes in a private treatment room at Airlee's Banqiao branch.
According to the social media post, the woman said the smoke detector appeared to conceal a recording device, and although clinic staff insisted it was just a smoke detector, she reported the matter to the police.
The woman later returned to the branch with police and office found a recording device connected to a power source after opening the smoke detector.
Prosecutors have questioned eight people in connection with the case so far - and along with the cosmetic surgery chain chairman, two other suspects have also been detained.
