The offence of voyeurism covers cases where someone who has a reasonable expectation of privacy is secretly observed.

The law:

It is a prerequisite of all offences created by Section 67 (Voyeurism) that the activity was "for the purpose of obtaining sexual gratification".
ie Unless activity was for that purpose, no offence under Section 67 is committed.
The Prosecution have to prove that was the purpose.

NB:
The defendants in this case have not been charged with voyeurism.
