Leslie just posted in the FB joshifans group about another joshi-related scandal
I'll just copy and paste:
"More weird bad old news, courtesy Lenny DVDR:
"According to TOKYO SPORTS newspaper (pic below) at the 4/18 WAVE show one of the girls found a small pen-sized camera hidden in what is described as the women's backstage bathroom at Shin-Kiba 1st Ring.
They traced it back to the 36 year-old official photographer of JWP & STARDOM, who also freelances. Apparently they tried to keep the story quiet though the guy was confronted and claimed it was the first time he attempted what many are seeing as a crime. Now the TOKYO SPORTS has broken the story, the cat's out of the bag.
People are also pissed off since they guy is an insider, has been around, so he's seen as a traitor too. He's apologized profusely and obviously is most likely done.
STARDOM boss Rossy Ogawa said on his blog they tried to keep it quiet because of concern about the damage it could do to Joshi Pro Wrestling as a whole. Also, the fact is was an insider with access just makes it worse for the backstage environment and trust of anybody. He also said there is no conclusive evidence that any damage was actually done (aka. naked pics/video).
The newspaper article says numerous groups were compromised, but many in the industry are discounting that. They also said that the bathroom is actually a small bathroom in the back that both men and women use in Shin-kiba. And obviously the big photo of Yuzuki Aikawa is to sell papers...

There's a small inset box that features Kandori, with the heading saying essentially: "Kandori is pissed, saying him him directly with a metal hammer!" He's a dead man....!
