MAN ARRESTED AFTER CAMERA FOUND IN RESTAURANT BATHROOM


LA PERLA MANAGER HAJIME MARUYANA FACES CHARGE OF TAMPERING WITH EVIDENCE

MIAMI – Beyond the outer walls of La Perla, inside the women's bathroom, is
where a customer said she found a recording device facing the direction of the
restaurant's toilet.

The woman was assisting her child in the bathroom off Southwest 152nd Street and
Southwest 137th Avenue Saturday when, according to a Miami police report, she
noticed a strange device tucked away under the sink.

She took it apart and took it to her husband at the table. She started
researching on her phone to see what it was and determined that it was an
advanced motion sensor camera.



"That's a violation. It's a total violation of women's rights," Julio Guzman,
who frequents the shopping plaza, said. 

The couple confronted employees before speaking to the manager, Hajime Maruyana.

According to the arrest report, Maruyana, 42, took the device and started
walking around. Maruyana then "became very nervous and began to walk around and
pace the restaurant as if attempting to get away from or avoid" the victim.

The mother demanded to see what was on the camera as Maruyana walked from the
back rooms of the restaurant to the front. She later noticed the camera's memory
chip was missing. But Maruyana claims it was never there.

According to the report, Maruyana told the mother "I didn't do it" in Spanish
and then walked up to a cook and said, "There isn't a chip in here, right?
There's never been a chip in here, right?"



When she said she was calling the police, Maruyana pleaded with her not to and
then said, "Well, then I'm calling my mother."

Police were called and arrested Maruyana on charges of tampering with evidence
and resisting arrest without violence.

According to the report, Maruyana's attorney had responded to the restaurant
before officers arrived. Police said Maruyana refused to answer questions or
cooperate with the investigation.

They said the restaurant owner and Maruyana's mother, Luz Maruyana, also refused
to cooperate with the investigation and told detectives to get a search warrant.

A search warrant was obtained and surveillance video verified the statements
made by the victims, the report said.

Maruyana has since been released on bail.

Local 10 News went to the restaurant trying to get answers, but an employee
wouldn't speak about the allegations.
