A 14-year-old girl tried to commit suicide by downing 40 pills after a guy she was involved with threatened to publish nude images and videos of her.

The Grand Criminal Court sentenced the young man, who is in his twenties, to seven years of labor after being convicted of indecent assault, in light of Article 15 of the Cybercrime Law.

The court said that the victim met the accused in 2021 on Instagram and their relationship evolved until he jokingly asked her to marry him and she agreed after which she started sending nude images of herself without showing her face when he asked her to.

The accused sent her a nude image of himself along with a picture of weapons to threaten her. Then, they exchanged intimate conversations and she sent him a video of herself. However, she repeatedly refused meeting him to have intercourse.

When she asked him to end the relationship, he started threatening to publish everything and even threatened to send the pictures to her mother.

The accused sent her nude videos and images to her brother's friend, and the latter informed the girl's brother.

After the girl’s brother watched the videos and photos, the girl tried to commit suicide for fear of her mother.

When she was rescued, she told her mother what happened and filed a complaint against him.

The young man was detained, his phone was seized and the images and videos were deleted.
