An MBA graduate was arrested by Crime Branch's Anti Extortion Cell on Tuesday for allegedly blackmailing the director of a prominent multinational company. According to the police, the victim had met the accused Ahmad Shamshul Haq, 32, at a party in the city's western suburbs when the two exchanged contact details.

Haq told the director that he had contacts of some of the leading models in the film industry. A few days later, an unknown female contacted the victim on WhatsApp and the two soon began chatting and having phone conversations.
