01 · THE DISPATCH

An instructor at the Sea La Vie surf club in Herzliya has been charged after allegedly placing a GoPro camera in the women's changing room to film a female student. Rotem Yehiel, 44, a resident of the city, faces charges of indecent acts and invasion of privacy. According to the indictment, Yehiel concealed the camera and recorded the student during a surfing lesson. The club has not yet issued a response. The case follows a similar incident earlier this month in which Tel Aviv resident Yolen Cohen was arrested on suspicion of filming a woman in a fitting room, though that case is unrelated.
