> Casanova who cheated women of cash and cars arrested

Attracted a man looking like a Bollywood actor, three women in Seremban not only handed over their cash and cars, but also slept with the man before realising that they had been cheated by a Casanova. The victims, all in their 20s, met the man on social media platform 'Bee Talk' a few months ago before meeting face-to-face and then engaging in sex. Seremban police chief Assistant Commissioner Muhamad Zaki Harun said that the victims did not know each other, but befriended the Casanova, who works as a technician in the Klang Valley, on 'Bee Talk'. "After establishing a close relationship, the victims met with the Casanova and revealing pictures of the women were used as blackmail to extort money from the victims," he said. Following a tip-off, police detained a friend of the Casanova on Jan 13 for conspiring to take the money and cars from the victims, while the womaniser was arrested in a Seremban hotel last Saturday. Police investigations revealed that the womaniser had previous criminal records for blackmail and rape. The case is being investigated under Section 384 of the Penal Code under extortion and Section 377(c) for carnal intercourse against the order of nature without consent.
