There's something going on! Come see the excitement!
24-year-old woman collaborates with others to kidnap a member of the Saudi royal family!
Extorting Bitcoin!
According to Decrypt on December 16, a bizarre and bold kidnapping case has shocked society! 24-year-old Catherine Colivas, with the assistance of three accomplices, actually kidnapped a member of the Saudi Arabian royal family!
The methods of the crime were extremely brutal; they threatened to cut off the royal member's fingers, forcing him to pay 40,000 dollars in Bitcoin! Although Catherine Colivas has pleaded guilty, she was not sent to prison!
In a hearing in Victoria, Australia, Catherine Colivas faced a maximum sentence of 25 years. However, shockingly, she only received a community correction order, equivalent to doing community service in Australia!
The motive behind this kidnapping was actually a date! Colivas met this Saudi royal family member on a dating app, and they went out for drinks and dinner together. However, when the royal member was driving her home, he fell into an ambush!
Three men, including Colivas's boyfriend, suddenly appeared and tied him up with cables, rendering him immobile. They intimidated him and forced him to pay in Bitcoin. As the royal member was a cryptocurrency trader, he had to call a friend to complete the transfer.
The crime did not end there! They not only stole the royal member's keys but also raided his home, stealing clothes, a PlayStation 5, and several iPhones!
The victim was subsequently released and immediately reported to the police. He spent the night in the hospital due to head and wrist injuries. This case has sparked strong condemnation of criminal behavior and raised questions about legal justice in society!
