The accused was convicted of extortion, transmitting an intimate image without consent, and three counts of breaching bail conditions.
The accused extorted money from his former intimate partner by threatening to distribute a sexually explicit video, and subsequently distributed the video despite receiving the money.
While on bail, the accused repeatedly contacted the complainant in violation of his release conditions.
The court emphasized the severe psychological impact on the victim and the need for denunciation and deterrence, sentencing the accused to a total of 2 years, 4 months, and 1 day in the penitentiary.
