A former Met Police counter-terrorism officer has admitted using spy cameras to secretly film naked models.

Pretending to be a pilot, Det Insp Neil Corbel arranged fake photoshoots in hotel rooms, flats and Airbnbs.

Westminster Magistrates' Court heard he hid devices in tissue boxes, phone chargers, an air freshener and glasses to video his victims.

He was caught after a woman became suspicious of a digital clock and found it was a spy camera.

The 40-year-old from Hertfordshire pleaded guilty on Monday to 19 voyeurism offences.

Police found images of some 51 women on Corbel's hard drive and were able to identify 19 victims willing to make statements against him.

The offences, which were said to not be linked to his work as a police officer, took place across the London, Manchester and Brighton areas between January 2017 and February 2020.

He has been suspended by the Met. Now he has pleaded guilty, misconduct proceedings will take place.
