AUSTN (KXAN) - Police suspect a former North Austin Honda dealership employee placed a hidden camera in the women's bathroom of the business and secretively recorded dozens of women using the restroom, according to an arrest warrant filed Tuesday.

Police said Ahmad Golshani, 27, a former First Texas Honda employee, placed a hidden camera inside a potted plant "facing directly towards the toilet" in the business located at 3400 Steck Avenue, the affidavit states.

Police responded to a call about the clandestine camera on May 1. The video recordings occurred on or before that date. Police have retrieved more than 30 individual recordings of women using the bathroom, according to the arrest warrant.

After management at the dealership became aware of the camera, the company reviewed security camera footage and allegedly found Golshani entering and exiting the women's bathroom on three separate days, including the day the camera was found, according to the affidavit.

Video retrieved from the secret camera also captured an image of Golshani, according to the affidavit.

Golshani has been charged with multiple counts of improper photography or visual recording, a state-jail felony, according to the warrant. He has also been fired from his position at First Texas Honda.
