Luxembourg: The European Investment Bank has suspended an employee for allegedly installing secret cameras in the female changing rooms, sources close to the bank said on Thursday.
Werner Hoyer, the president of the Luxembourg-based lender, announced the suspension of the bank worker and the opening of a police inquiry on Wednesday, the sources said. Managers have notified around 150 woman who may have been affected, they said.
"The human resources department has given the details of a psychologist to those who are in a state of shock," one employee said on condition of anonymity.
"The inquiry then found elements showing other potentially illegal activities by this individual on these premises," the EIB said, adding that it involved "visual material."
"The investigations took a lot of time because there was a lot of material to view," a spokesman said, adding that the bank had brought in an external expert. "No one here at the bank has viewed the material." Luxembourg police have now opened a new inquiry, the prosecutor confirmed.
