A Ghanaian journalist identified as Emmanuel Orlando Matrevi from Ghana, has been arrested for collecting n*de pictures from women to blackmail them, 3news reports.
It was gathered that the 37-year-old who was a volunteer with Coastal TV in Cape Coast, has been threatening to publish n*de pictures of ladies if they allegedly refuse him s*x.
Speaking to Onua FM, the Central Regional Crime Officer, Chief Superintendent Baffour Appenteng said that the suspect pretends to be someone residing abroad, he then lures the girls through social media.
Explaining how Matrevi operates, it was revealed that he begins by establishing an intimate relationship with the ladies online, he would then request for n*de pictures and arrange a meeting, telling them he is in town.
During the meetings with the ladies, he allegedly asks for s*x from them or threatens to make the n*de pictures public with some of the ladies giving into his demand.
But after a series of sexual encounters with one of his victims, Chief Supt. Appenteng said, the lady got fed up and reported his modus operandi to the police.
The accused, who has been arrested and granted bail about a week ago, was days later re-arrested after another girl reported his abominable activity to the police.
Emmanuel, whose iPad with the n*de pictures is in the possession of the police, will be arraigned soon.
