Man jailed for holding teen 'hostage' by threatening to leak naked photos of her online after meeting on Roblox
"A man has been jailed for two and half years after holding a 15-year-old girl "hostage" by threatening to leak naked photographs of her, having met the child through an online game,"
"The now 24-year-old Slovenian man initially met the girl in 2022 through the game Roblox."
"He cannot be named to protect the identity of the now 18-year-old victim."
A 24-year-old Slovenian man received a two-and-a-half-year prison sentence for threatening to release naked photographs of a 15-year-old and effectively holding her hostage. The man initially met the victim through the online game Roblox in 2022. The victim was 15 at the time of the threats and is now 18. The man's identity is withheld to protect the victim. The conviction centers on coercion and blackmail involving explicit images used to intimidate a minor. The sentence demonstrates legal consequences for exploiting online interactions with young people.
