This is really unusual and borders on disgust. Few could really notice that behind the school uniform, the long braids, the outlined eyebrows and the face covered with a mask, there was no young girl. No… there was a man hiding, a covert voyeur who was caught in the toilets of a school in Peru.

Under tight security and surrounded by a large number of journalists, the Peruvian National Police arrested the alleged stalker on Thursday, April 20, 2023.

They found him in the bathroom of an educational institution in Huancayo, a town in Junín, located in the center of Peruvian territory.

Authorities identified him as Walter César Solís Calero, 42. They confirm that they found him in the toilets of the Rosa de América school, located in the El Tambo neighborhood, in Huancayo.

With no way to explain his presence there, the National Police was called when he was discovered by members of the school brigade and campus authorities.

According to the security camera recording, Solís came in camouflaged among school children in the morning.

“Her arrest came after a warning from the deputy principal, who initially thought she was a student and asked her to leave the bathroom. That is how the subject came to the fore and was exposed,” said La República.

The Public Prosecutor is prosecuting him for the alleged crime of touching sexual freedom, acts with sexual or libidinal connotation (degree of attempt), to the detriment of minors of a school, Agencia Andina reported.

Earlier, according to Infobae, Huancayo Police Department Commander Erick Acosta stated that “the sexual harassment will be charged for the alleged crimes of invasion of privacy, sexual harassment, acts of indecency, among others.”

Solís’ cell phone has been seized, El Comercio said. When reviewing the team, it was learned that “he would have already entered other institutions under the same modality”.

In his “defense”, that medium adds, “the defendant claims that he enjoys taking pictures with the students.”

News of his arrest spread quickly. Digital media reported on Thursday evening that parents and representatives went to protest at Dirincri’s headquarters asking for jail time for the subject.

Some mothers, reported La República, expressed their total rejection of what Solís had done: “I am outraged” and “We ask for justice, we don’t want him released,” were their comments.

Background

“It turned out that he also had photos with uniforms from other educational institutions. The man claims he likes to take pictures. He took advantage of the situation with the uniform of a minor, with school shoes, with the jacket, hat and mask that he took advantage of to enter the educational institution, ”said La República, the director of the Rosa de American school Ronald Vilchez.

This gentleman is getting used to entering other institutions. Let’s hope it didn’t do any damage.

The National Police also reported that Solís Calero “would have a criminal record for sexual harassment of minors and that the subject is being investigated as part of an international pedophile network, as the videos and photos allegedly found on his mobile phone.”
