A North London man has been charged with 19 counts of voyeurism after he allegedly filmed women through their windows in the early hours of the morning.
Anthony Durkan, 35, from Islington, North London, is scheduled to appear at Highbury Corner Magistrates’ Court on July 21 charged with 19 counts of voyeurism between January 2020 and March 2026.

I want to reassure the public that these allegations are being treated with the utmost seriousness.”
She added: “At this time, there is no information to suggest there is any wider risk to the community. We are now keen to hear from anyone who believes they may have been affected by this case. We recognise that coming forward can feel daunting, but anyone who contacts us will be listened to, supported and guided by specialist officers. The information you share could be vital to our investigation.”
