A 19-year-old Ilog resident, who threatened to expose indecent photos of an acquaintance on the social media in exchange for money and sexual favor, was arrested Wednesday, Dec. 23, in Kabankalan City, Negros Occidental.
Nabbed by the police during an entrapment operation at the Ceres Liner Bus Terminal in Kabankalan was Rodel Elcontro of Purok Orchids, Brgy. Canlamay, Ilog.
Initial police investigations showed that the suspect, using an identity of Oscar Ocampo in his social media account, demanded sexual favor and P200,000 from the 36-year-old complainant.
The suspect allegedly threatened to upload and spread on the social media the nude photos and video of the complainant if she will not comply with his demands, the police report said.
This prompted the complainant to seek help from Ilog police, which immediately conducted an entrapment operation that led to the arrest of the suspect.
Recovered from the possession of Elcontro were P1,000 in marked money and a bundle of boodle money, a brown wallet, a lighter, bonnet, a cellular phone and P95 in cash. — GB
