Coach filmed girls in posh changing room

Posecutors still in possession of recordings given to them by another coach of club
The Hague: Dutch police has arrested a man in connection with the filming of hundreds of women and girls in the changing room of a prestigious hockey club where three princesses are members, prosecutors said on Tuesday.Prosecutors said the suspect along with another man still being sought by police were in possession of recordings from the changing room that were given to them by a coach at the club, who was arrested last week.
The recordings were made at the upmarket HGC club in Wassenaar, an expensive suburb north of The Hague, where Dutch King Willem-Alexander and Queen Maxima’s three daughters play hockey.The recordings were made between 2006-11 and “the princesses are not on the images,” Ilse de Heer, spokeswoman for the prosecutor's office, told AFP last week.
The 45-year-old coach, identified as Luigi C, has been charged for filming in the club and possessing child pornography.
He was identified because his face was recorded when he checked the camera.
The arrest has reawakened calls for youth coaches to require a “certificate of good conduct and morals” from the government, as teachers already do.
