A TURKISH barbers has been raided amid claims a spy camera was allegedly discovered in a sunbed located inside the shop.
Police this afternoon locked down Village Turkish Barber in Drumchapel Shopping Centre after a covert device was allegedly found.
The hairdresser – which doubles as a tanning salon – was ordered to shut shop as detectives launched an urgent probe.
A local mum was distraught at the alleged discovery after learning her daughter had been regularly stripping off in the seedy sunbed parlour.
She said: “I feel sick to my stomach, my daughter uses this place, she was in just the other day.
“The place was swarming with cops, they’ve entered the shop and closed the shutters.”
Officers nicked a 43-year-old man and confirmed an ongoing probe is underway.
The shop remains closed this afternoon with metal shutters covering the shop window.
A Police Scotland spokesperson said: “On Friday, 22 November, 2024 officers carried out a search of premises in Dunkenny Square, Glasgow under warrant.
“A 43-year-man was arrested on connection with an ongoing enquiry.”
The barbers boast cut-rate fees for tanning according to an online post, with seven minutes priced at just £4.
The hair spot also offers traditional cuts including a hot towel shave and skin fades.
MET Eireann have issued a 10-hour Status Red weather alert for two counties ahead of Storm Bert – and people in those areas have been warned to “avoid any travel”.
The red alert has been issued for Cork and Galway tomorrow – with those in the counties being told to prepare for “exceptional circumstances” as the vicious storm conditions move in from the Atlantic.
A Status Red alert warns of “rare and very dangerous” weather conditions from “intense meteorological phenomena”.
There is a Orange rainfall warning in place from midnight to 10am tomorrow in Clare, Leitrim, Kerry, Sligo, Mayo and Waterford.
While there is a yellow wind warning in place from 10pm until 12am tomorrow for all counties except for Fermanagh due to Storm Bert.
A red weather warning is issued during a rare weather event that is considered “extremely dangerous” and “destructive” by Met Eirean.
Status red rain warnings are issued in situations where over 50mm of rain falls in 6hrs, 60mm of rain falls in 12 hrs, or 80mm of rain falls in 24 hours or less.
This is only the second time Met Eireann has issued a red warning for rainfall.
Met Eireann has warned the potential impacts of Storm Bert are localised river flooding in small upland and urban catchments – particularly in the west and southwest.
As well as surface flooding due to snow melt on Thursday and Friday meeting heavy rainfall during the storm,
Other impacts are dangerous travelling conditions, displaced objects and fallen trees – meaning driving on roads or motorways during the vicious weather could be dangerous.
The Road Safety Authority has urged all road users in the areas affected by a RED weather warning to “avoid any travel” during the storm.
People should take extra care and only drive if it is absolutely necessary.
This is from midnight until 10am on Saturday in Cork and Galway.
Additionally, the RSA advise all road users to take extreme care in the areas where orange and yellow weather warnings are in place tomorrow due to Storm Bert.
The RSA have said “very strong winds and heavy rain will track north-eastwards across the country over the weekend.”
All road users are being advised to be aware of the dangers that will continue once the storm has passed – such as flooded roads, downed pylons, lines, trees, branches and debris.
The public are advised to obey any road closures and follow diversions put in palce by local authorities and An Garda Siochana.
Comprehensive car insurance should cover drivers for any damage caused by techerous weather during a red weather wanring.
However, if a motorist is found to have been driving irresponsibly during bad weather leading to a collision – your insurer may not pay out in the end.
If an insurance company is able to prove contributory negligence on the part of a motorist, their claim will be questioned.
An Insurance Ireland spokesperson previously said: “Damage to cars caused by the storm is covered by comprehensive motor insurance policies.
“Third-party fire and theft policies cover motorist’s for damage to other cars in the event of an accident, injury to other people, or damage to your car in the event of a fire or theft.”
A MAP has revealed the UK’s ‘danger dog’ hotspots with 114 hell hounds seized a week.
One of the largest dog marketplaces Puppies.co.uk sent Freedom of Information (FOI) requests to police forces across the UK.
Just under 6,000 dangerous dogs have been seized by 27 forces since November 2023.
This means 114 dogs are seized each week across the nation on average.
The area most affected by these alarming trends was Greater Manchester with 19 dogs seized a week.
The second highest was in the West Midlands with 17 dogs followed by Northumbria with nine.
West Yorkshire seized eight a week while Leicestershire said it seized six.
Experts have warned the current breed-specific approach, including the XL Bully ban, is not working.
They have argued the onus should instead be on the dog owners.
A spokesperson for Puppies.co.uk said: “While the recent data on dog seizures is concerning, it’s crucial to remember that focusing on breed-specific bans is not the answer to promoting public safety.
“The Dangerous Dogs Act has been in effect for over three decades and yet, hospital admissions due to dog bites continue to rise.
“Instead of focusing on breed, the emphasis should be on addressing the root causes of dog aggression, which generally stem from irresponsible ownership and breeding practices.”
They added: “Dogs, regardless of breed, can exhibit aggressive behaviour if they are not properly trained, socialised, and cared for.
“Tighter breeding legislation and increased resources for enforcement are necessary to combat the rise of illegal and low-welfare breeders who prioritise profit over the well-being of the animals.”
It comes after cops issued an urgent warning to dog owners to “step up before someone dies” after 13 horrific attacks in less than 48 hours.
South Yorkshire Police said incidents of dangerous dogs included a man left with serious facial injuries and a woman fearing for her baby’s safety.
The force added that owners who did “not step up” and prevent harm would not be tolerated.
Police said in the release that a man was attacked by his own dog in Sheffield on Thursday at 3.22pm.
The American Bulldog had attacked when the owner attempted to separate the bulldog and a pocket bully inside a property.
The owner suffered lacerations to his face, neck and head and was taken to hospital.
The dog was seized and remains in police kennels.
Further calls included a woman walking home with her baby in a carrier on her chest.

A DEVASTATED family have paid a heartbreaking tribute to their “wonderful” little girl, 10, who was mauled to death by their XL Bully.
Savannah Bentham was attacked by the “new pet” inside their caravan near Malton, North Yorkshire, last Friday at around 4.15pm.
The youngster had been happily playing on swings in a park nearby just before the horror.
Savannah’s family have now issued a heartwrenching statement released by North Yorkshire Police.
It reads: “We are utterly shocked and devastated by what happened to Savannah.
“We can’t believe we have lost our wonderful girl who we love so much.
“We thank everyone for their support and kindness as we struggle to come to terms with our loss.
“We ask that our family’s privacy is respected while we grieve for Savannah.”
Locals described the harrowing moment the youngster’s mother ran out screaming “my baby’s dead”.
A gardener at a caravan park next door to the mobile home – based in the storage yard of a utilities company – told how the “piercing” screams from the girl’s mother were “etched in my memory”.
Keith, 67, said: “It’s done me in. I don’t drink much but I’ve drunk all weekend just to hide it. I didn’t sleep a wink on Friday. I’ve just not been able to cope with it. I’ll never forget it.
“I’d just got back to the site and I saw armed police fly in and the helicopters 10 minutes later.
“Then I heard the screaming. ‘My baby, my baby, my baby, my baby’s dead’.
“It was a piercing scream. I’ll take it to my grave – it was so harrowing. It’ll haunt me until the day I die.
“I’ll never forget it. Those screams were horrendous.
“I knew straight away what must have happened – I told my wife ‘I think the dog’s killed the girl’.”
She was approached by a loose XL Bully who began to show aggression and jump up to her baby.
Meanwhile an elderly woman and her grandchild were attacked by another loose dog in Sheffield.
It comes just days after a “wonderful” little girl, 10, was mauled to death by an XL Bully in North Yorkshire.

THERE are specific regulations in place that prohibit certain dog breeds from being owned or bred in the UK.
So what are the illegal dogs in the UK and why are they illegal? Here’s what we know.
Which dog breeds are illegal in the UK?
People tend to think of large, vicious dogs when they imagine being bitten by one.
But the truth is that many types of dogs are known to bite humans, whether provoked or not.
However, it’s important to remember that just because a breed tends to bite humans, that doesn’t mean that they all do.
British law determines five breeds of dog are illegal to own, breed, sell or give away.
These are an XL Bully, Pit Bull Terrier, Japanese Tosa, Dogo Argentino and Fila Brasileiro.
