A self-proclaimed “crypto king” was allegedly kidnapped, reportedly enduring days of torture and assault from attackers demanding a multi-million-dollar ransom,.
“They basically held him for approximately three days, drove him around different, various parts of southern Ontario, beat him, tortured him, allowed him to make specific phone calls to specific people only. I was not one of those people that he was allowed to contact,” his father, who was not identified, said in December. While held captive, Pleterski contacted his landlord and asked for $3 million, the court papers reportedly recounted..
The landlord recounted how Pleterski said there was no one else he could call, to which he responded: “There’s absolutely nothing I can do.” Pleterski is embroiled in a bankruptcy controversy in which he allegedly was asked to invest over $40 million – and instead spent nearly $16 million on lavish vacations, expensive cars and private planes, according to CTV News.
