Tragic suicide after alleged sexual assault and blackmail

A 23-year-old young man tragically took his own life on Monday after allegedly being sexually assaulted by four men, one of whom he met through social media, officials said.

The harrowing incident took place in a hotel, where the suspects allegedly recorded the assault and demanded extortion money, threatening to publish the video online. Although a report was filed, the victim succumbed to her trauma hours later.

Authorities have now arrested three of the accused, while the search for the fourth suspect is ongoing. The case has drawn attention to the dangers of online interactions and the urgent need for responsive law enforcement.
