Singapore police have opened an investigation after a social-media video appeared to show a masked man following two female students while wearing glasses that may have contained a camera. The footage has prompted concerns about privacy and safety, though the available report does not establish what was recorded.

Singapore police have launched an investigation after a video allegedly showing a man filming two female students with smart glasses circulated online, the South China Morning Post reports. The footage shows a man wearing black-rimmed glasses and a face mask walking behind two students. The girls appear to be wearing uniforms associated with Raffles Institution, and the report says they seem unaware of him.

The man is also shown holding a phone against his chest and pressing what appears to be a control. The available material does not establish whether the glasses recorded the students or whether the man has been identified. The incident has raised concerns about privacy and safety in Singapore.

Police have not, in the supplied report, described any possible offence, named a suspect or announced an arrest.
