Drinking alone on Christmas Eve, blackmailing a former lover Give me 300,000 yuan, or I'll tell your husband about our past Zhengzhou police solved the case within three hours, and the suspect was criminally detained Henan Business Daily (reporter Juyang Hu) On Christmas, thinking of an ungrateful ex-lover, he then had evil thoughts and carried out extortion. Yesterday, a greedy man was caught by Zhengdong New Area police. "Someone is blackmailing me, demanding 300,000 yuan in cash via text message." At 9:00 am on December 26th, a middle-aged woman surnamed Wang reported to the Zhengdong Police Station. Ms. Wang is a manager of a pharmaceutical company. She said that on the evening of Christmas, someone sent her a text message asking for 300,000 yuan in cash within 12 hours, otherwise, they would tell her husband and colleagues at work about her past relationship with a man surnamed Jia. The text message was from a man who also called her. But the phone number and the voice were unfamiliar to Ms. Wang. The police immediately launched an investigation. Ms. Wang recalled that Mr. Jia was once an employee of her company, and over time their relationship developed into a lovers' affair. Later, when Jia wanted to leave the company, he asked Ms. Wang for a sum of money as start-up capital, but she refused him. The blackmailer was likely to be Jia - after detailed reasoning by the police officers, they let Ms. Wang agree to give the money. After some haggling, Ms. Wang agreed to pay 150,000 yuan, but the other party kept changing the transaction location. At 11:30 am yesterday, both parties finally agreed to meet at a building on Wenhua Road in Zhengzhou City to exchange the money. When Ms. Wang arrived with 150,000 yuan in cash, she found that the person coming to take the money was indeed Jia. Ms. Wang was so angry that she couldn't speak. The policemen lying in wait rushed forward and controlled Jia. It turned out that on Christmas Eve, while drinking alone, Jia thought of their past and resented Wang for being ungrateful, especially since she initiated the breakup and didn't even give him a penny for his start-up fund. Thus, Jia decided to retaliate through extortion. He used a new mobile phone number to send a text message to Wang demanding 300,000 yuan in cash, and then pinched his nose while calling Wang to arrange the meeting place, making it difficult for her to recognize his voice. Yesterday, Jia was criminally detained.
