According to police data, the criminal offenses fall under articles 24 and 152 of the Criminal Code.
That same day, a female resident of Tetovo filed a report alleging that Z.G. and another person had distributed private recordings with explicit sexual content on various platforms without permission. The footage came from the period of their previous relationship.
During court-authorized searches at his home, law enforcement found and confiscated as evidence a mobile phone and a laptop.
Investigations so far indicate that over the past two years, Z.G. had repeatedly demanded sums of money from the victim in order to not make the videos and photographs public. The 48-year-old is currently detained at the police station, and after the complete investigation, relevant criminal charges will be filed against him.
