This sort of a thing need not be just with Paharganj hotels but anywhere in the world, thanks to the proliferation of technology. It could even be a simple but well hidden mobile phone with a camera.

I guess the cameras and technology is still expensive by Indian standards..
Wake up! There is an entire site on the Net dedicated to Indian peep show videos.

I don't know why anyone would use a phone when a couple of wires can be run to a camera so small it will be unnoticeable.

Hmmm... I think I'll be careful next time I go to a hotel. Nick-H Revealed is the last thing I want all over the net

Simple, if found, phone can be disowned. Wires lead to the recording equipment

I know about some...however they are not essentially peep show..

whatever mobile phone shot videos you get are self shot...even many so called peep shows are self shot using a simple more more sophisticated than phone camera..(read a normal point & shoot Digicam with video capabilities)

We only just managed to finance the new World-Wide Control Room without having to charge membership fees.

Had to outsource it to India, of course.

We'd have to screen you first!

I googled CCTV control room. This one is where I used to live in London. No wonder I never got away with driving in a bus lane . Scary.
