Severely disabled man, 32, - with only the use of his tongue and right thumb - who used hidden cameras to spy on his young female carers while they showered is spared jail



A severely disabled man with only the use of his tongue and right thumb who used hidden cameras to spy on his young female carers while they showered has been spared jail. Farhan Mian, 32, who has Duchenne muscular dystrophy, asked a relative to install cameras in his home under the guise of being concerned about being the victim of theft. However a court heard the bed-bound man wanted to spy on the three women for his own sexual gratification. Mian was able to operate the three cameras in his White City flat in London using just his thumb. Using a computer in his bedroom, he could zoom in and rotate the devices. Mian fought the case, but an Isleworth Crown Court jury unanimously found him guilty of six counts of voyeurism for the purpose of sexual gratification between 2011 and 2015.

'You were trusted by your carers, who do virtually everything for you and you filmed these three young woman, who were unaware of it in your flat,' Judge Giles Curtis-Raleigh told him.

'It is clear from their evidence they found this upsetting and that they were violated and betrayed by your selfish actions for your own sexual gratification.'

He was placed on a six-month community order, which includes a three-month curfew, prohibiting Mian to leave his flat between 10pm and 6am. He was also made subject to a five-year Sexual Harm Prevention Order prohibiting him installing cameras in the bathroom and the carers' room. 'The sentence marks as best I can the court's view about these very unpleasant offences against young women who were doing their best for you,' added the judge. Outside court Mian said: 'People are also vulnerable to their carers.'



Two cameras were pointed at the carers' bed in their private room and their shower, the third was in Mian's room and there was a fourth short-lived camera hidden in a Playboy Bunny's eye in their bedroom.

Mian claimed his nephew installed the cameras as a security measure after he was a victim of a theft and they were not for any gratification.



He can only move his tongue and right thumb and is usually bed-bound, but can operate a computer to communicate and is transported to court in a wheelchair that also assists his breathing.

Police were called and found the recordings after another carer, who had only been there five days, found a secret camera on September 3, 2015. He received a police warning in 2011, but continued filming his carers, who he is no longer able to pick as he likes, but in consultation with the local authority. Prosecutor Mr. Tim Starkey told the jury three young women, from Poland and Latvia, were hired by Mian, who is funded by the NHS to arrange his own care.

The first carer was employed between 2010 and 2012. 'The camera is pointed towards her and follows her to the shower and zooms in. 'She was unaware she was being filmed and did not consent.'

Another seven recordings were found on Mian's computer, including her undressing, using the toilet and intimately shaving herself. In June, 2011 she returned after a two-week break. 'She saw two Playboy Bunny's attached to her bed and one of the eyes was a camera.' 'She complained and Mr. Mian said words to the effect of: 'It's my property, I can do what I want.' 'She was upset and he offered to pay her three thousand pounds to keep quiet about the camera.' The woman called the police, but she did not make a statement and there was no further action.

The second woman worked for Mian between 2011 and 2016. 'He offered her cash to masturbate in front of him. 'He recorded her in his bedroom, where she undressed and had a sex toy and went to kiss him.

'She lay on his bed and stroked her vagina with her fingers, but did not consent to him recording her doing this.' Police found recordings of the third woman, who was employed for fourteen months from January, 2015, sitting on her bed stripped to the waist. 'She said it must have been just after she had taken a shower and said Mr. Mian frequently spoke to her in a sexually inappropriate way.

'He bought her a bikini to wear when she showered him and bought her a short Ann Summers dress.

'He said his carers often gave him 'extras' which she took to believe as sexual favours.' Mr. Starkey added: 'The cameras were installed specifically with the purpose to allow these acts of voyeurism to take place.'He told the police he was a victim of theft and got his nephew to install the cameras.'

However, the jury were told some of the recordings were made before his claim a Bulgarian carer stole £300 from him in 2014. The Polish carer, who was recorded by Mian sitting on her bed stripped to the waist, told the court: 'He often talked about sex and I didn't like that. 'He talked about his past relationships and what he did with the girls, showing me his sex toys and making sexual jokes.

'He told me that he had some sexual relationships with carers in the past. 'Some of the carers were also like his girlfriend and some of them did some extras for him.' She told the court he was keen for her to assist him pleasuring himself. 'He was telling me that when he has a shower sometimes he pays extra if someone helps him with a hand. 'He said he'd buy me pyjamas and I said make sure they have long sleeves and trousers, but when they arrived he had ordered a top with straps and very short shorts.

'He said: 'I'll get you a swimming costume so you can wear it when you shower me.' 'I refused to wear it because it was two small pieces attached with string.'

Mian's lawyer Mr. Graham Smith told the court: 'He is the third-oldest male in the country with this condition and his life expectancy is poor. 'It's been a difficult and emotional experience for him, a salutary experience. 'Having reached the ripe old age of thirty-two he is inspirational to many that he continues to live independently.'

So this guy can only move his tongue and right thumb and he tricks his nephew to install security cameras so that he can spy on his hired caregivers. He was spared jail and given a light fine and curphew. Do you think the judge was too lenient on him or should he have gone to jail?

he needs help.

I don't think there is much use in him going to jail.

He is a sleazy jerk though. But they come in all types dont they?

Creepy dude LMAO.

Cost of cameras and legal fees. Should have kept his money and hired an escort instead...

Maybe he enjoyed the non consensual aspect.

What he did was wrong. He should be offered help. His is an extreme situation. It's doubtful he can hurt anyone else. His victims should be compensated.



Jail would have been a bad idea imo. He is in a terrible situation. Justice should show mercy.

He would have to be monitered though so it doesn't happen again and be instructed on how to behave with careers and perhaps given experienced male careers.

No caregivers should be provided to him.

Secondly he should pay in cash for the harrasment.

Thirdly he should be moved to a centre.

He needs carers.

I agree he should be fined though.

Well if that is what experts feel should happen in this case you have to go with what they say. It's hard not to feel torn about it or sorry for him. But he could have asked for help.

It's tough though when someone very vulnerable already takes advantage of people who actually try to help them in such a manner though.

Obv disabled people should have full sex lives etc. But this was not about that.

If he could only use his tongue and his thumb I doubt he could have gotten much sexual gratification from the spying. I could be wrong.

I can understand the ladies being mad doe.

Perhaps not physically. Maybe it's a mind thing.

I mean there is plenty of porn on the internet. He didn't need to make them feel like that.

Also there are disabled people struggling to date and making the effort etc...who would never dream of it.

ok give male carers or moved to a central facility, fined and no jail time is what I'm hearing. A fine to each of the caregivers, how much to each £5k? £10k? £50k?

hmmm this could have happened

Man shot twice in the head by escort found alive 3 days later

A 21-year-old escort has been arrested on suspicion of shooting a client in the head and stealing his wallet and gun, CBS News affiliate KIRO-TV reports.

Prosecutors say Marissa Wallen made her first court appearance by video on Wednesday. She's currently being held in lieu of $ 1 million bail.

According to court documents, Wallen shot the 36-year-old man in the back of his head while they were engaged in sexual activity at his home in North Everett, Washington. Wallen said she fired a second shot, which "struck him in the side of the face."

The Herald Net reports the shooting took place on Oct. 21. Wallen said she shot the man "because he was performing (a sex act) wrong," according to her statement.

he should have hired honestly, putting in the ad

"Need a caregiver who doensn't mind me peeking into their nudity while showering...will pay extra benefits"

and no one will be pissed off.

edit i have no idea of the sentence.

he's so creepy.

I feel bad for him, poor guy has to install cameras just to appease his sexual needs.

Being trapped in your own body with paralysis is a prison within itself.



I’d sign the papers tell them inject me, and get it over with.

this i agree with. Ready for Valhalla...or the Underworld.
