The Challenge
A real estate developer in Jaipur noticed that their bids for a major infrastructure project were being undercut by the exact same margin in repeated tender rounds.
The CEO suspected the executive boardroom was no longer private.
The Problem
Luxury real estate offices often feature carved wood, false ceilings, and heavy drapery that provide ideal concealment for both hidden cameras and audio recorders.
- Audio transmitter detection during negotiation phases.
- Hidden camera detection aimed at blueprint designs and financial projections.
- Threats for corporate integrity linked to tender losses.
The Action
Wahid Shaikh supervised an after-hours deep sweep using specialized tools for premium interior environments.
- Laser-based optical lens finding across wood carvings and decor.
- Thermal imaging of walls and ceilings for concealed power supplies.
- NLJD scanning inside an antique conference table.
The Findings
The team discovered a 4K hidden camera disguised as a motion sensor and a high-fidelity audio recorder hidden behind a wall painting.
Both devices used Wi-Fi to transmit data to a nearby hotspot parked outside the building.
The Solution
- Installed ultrasonic audio masking devices.
- Audited physical access logs and upgraded security guard protocols.
- Established a bi-annual TSCM service agreement.
Outcome
With the boardroom secured, the developer finalized strategy in confidence and went on to win the subsequent government tender.
