The man was involved in blackmailing his former 27-year-old girlfriend in March and April in 2007 by threatening to upload their videos with intimate acts on the internet if she did not make up with him. The man fled to Mainland China afterwards. Officers of Regional Crime Unit Kowloon West took up the case for investigation and the Mainland's PSB was requested to assist in locating the man. The man was located by Zhuhai PSB on June 28 this year and was returned to HKP at Huanggang Border Control Point yesterday. The man has been charged with one count of blackmail and will appear in Kowloon City Magistrates' Courts today (July 19). |
