Five young female tenants who share an apartment in Shanghai took their landlord to court after they discovered hidden cameras inside their home.

They found cameras in their bedrooms, the hallway and in the shower.

They moved into the apartment in September 2007 and later that year, they accidentally found the cameras and called police.

Last year, they sued Sun and asked for 50,000 yuan each. To their dismay, the court ordered that Sun pay each just 2,000 yuan, and said that the landlord suffers from a mental disorder.
