Meskipun kejadian tersebut sudah berlalu bertahun-tahun, Sarah Azhari menegaskan bahwa luka psikologis dari pelanggaran privasi seberat itu tidak pernah benar-benar hilang dengan mudah. Dalam pengakuannya, ia mengalami dampak traumatik yang mendalam: 1. Mengalami PTSD (Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder)

Tanpa sepengetahuan mereka, pihak tidak bertanggung jawab telah memasang kamera tersembunyi ( hidden camera ) di dalam ruang ganti dan toilet tempat para artis berganti pakaian.
