A Durban man on a work trip to Gauteng is being extorted for large sums of money after engaging the services of a sex worker in Randburg last week (Thursday 20/05/2021).
The man contacted Reaction Unit South Africa (RUSA) seeking assistance after the prostitute and several men identifying themselves as Police Officers from Randburg SAPS threatened to pitch up at his residence In Kwazulu Natal if they were not paid.
The complainant informed Reaction Officers that he was seeking protection believing that he might be harmed or murdered. He informed Officers that whilst on a work trip, he had booked into a hotel and searched the internet for woman offering sexual services. He eventually settled on a Indian female who arrived at his room and charged him R2800 in cash. After paying up, the woman & the complainant shared a few drinks and engaged in a conversation regarding their personal & work lives. The man further added that he undressed but did not engage in sexual activity with the female, explaining that a mixture of alcohol and medication he had consumed had made him sick. He attempted to get a refund but the sex worker declined and left the hotel.
The man said that since the incident he received several calls from the woman and three (3) different men identifying themselves as Police Officers (picture 5) who attempted to extort monies from him ranging between R500 to R3500. He was threatened with exposure on the internet, assault, attack on his family and confrontation at his home/work.
The man accepted that he had provided personal details to the sex worker during a lengthy conversation.
