SINGAPORE - A teenager who extorted $150 from a classmate in Sept 2013 was placed on two years' probation on Friday.
Noor Iqmal Noor Indra, 18, confronted 17-year-old Khairul Irfan Abdul Halim after finding out he had been teasing a female schoolmate. He threatened to tell the girl's elder brother who he claimed would assault Mr Khairul Irfan.
The victim handed over $50, and another $100 after Noor Iqmal repeated the threat a few days later.
Noor Iqmal subsequently lied that the girl's brother had found out about the teasing anyway, and offered to speak to him on Mr Khairul Irfan's behalf. He received another $50.
