SINGAPORE: A man was sentenced to a year's jail on Monday for threats he made to two men he met on Grindr.
While the victim performed a sex act on him, Ransom would give an excuse to use his phone before filming the victim in the act.The court heard that Ransom met the first victim on May 19 last year, the same day they began chatting on the app. The victim asked him to delete it, but Ransom refused and threatened to leak the video and ruin his reputation if he did not get S$500.
Ransom was not satisfied with the money and pressed for the remaining S$300, which the victim withdrew from another ATM. Seeing this, Ransom accused the victim of lying about the daily withdrawal limit and that he needed to pay another S$500. However, as the victim was doing so, he heard a sound from Ransom's phone and realised that he was recording a video.
