Melbourne developer Paul Fridman denied bail in $20M extortion case after allegedly hiring someone to threaten former partners with violence and a firebombing.
Melbourne property developer Paul Fridman, 50, was denied bail in a $20 million extortion case after allegedly hiring an overseas individual, “Mr International,” to threaten two former business partners, Ash Boyd and Nigel Givoni.
Police say Fridman promised a 10% cut for threats involving violence, phone calls, and a firebombing of Boyd’s home, which left the family unharmed but at ongoing risk.
Fridman, arrested at his home where cocaine was found, claims he used the drug for ADHD and sought repayment of alleged debts, though both victims deny owing him.
He faces multiple charges including extortion, blackmail, and drug possession, with the case ongoing.
