Man who extorted from prostitute with knife sentenced to jail and caning.
A man who was facing financial difficulties decided to extort from prostitutes as he believed they would not call the police when under threat.
At about 9.20pm, Yap went to the flat with a fruit knife and masking tape. After entering a bedroom, both Yap and the woman stripped. Yap then pretended to take $100 from his wallet to pay the woman before brandishing the fruit knife at her. He grabbed her by the neck and held the knife to it. While the women were in the bedroom, Yap grabbed two mobile phones belonging to the woman and fled. He later passed the mobile phones to a friend to sell them. The mobile phones have since been recovered.
