The 28-year-old, named locally as Roger Vince, placed his mobile phone in the front of a shopping trolley while in the mall’s Carrefour supermarket.
Targeting women in short skirts, he followed them as they shopped and used the phone to film video footage up their skirts.

Vince, an electrician from North London, was detained when female shoppers complained to security staff in July, Dubai’s Criminal Court has heard.
He first appeared in court on August 4 and was released on bail but had to hand in his passport so he could not leave the United Arab Emirates.
On Tuesday, he appeared again in court, where the trial judge was shown images of two women stored on his phone.
Vince pleaded guilty to sexual molestation and was sentenced to six months in jail, after which he will be deported.
