Details: According to law enforcement officers, to force the former official to pay them a far -fetched debt, the defendants were threatened with physical violence to him and his relatives.
In total, criminal authority and two current deputies of one of the city councils – the heads of utility companies – demanded $ 60,000. They claimed that the expenser of the mayor was allegedly owed to them.
For some time, the intruders put psychological pressure on the victim, threatening him and his close physical violence. Subsequently, they resorted to more radical actions: involving unidentified persons, throwing a man’s light noise grenades in the courtyard, setting fire to his house and car. Fearing for his life and safety of the family, the victim was forced to agree to criminal demands.
Police detained three defendants while receiving a $ 22,000 from the victim.
All three have been informed of the suspicion of the Extortion Article, and they are now in custody. They can be threatened with up to 12 years in prison with confiscation of property.
Police do not report which city it is about.
