A woman was dragged before the Corporate Area Resident Magistrate's Court for allegedly trying to extort another female over a sexually explicit video that was retrieved from a device.
Charged with extortion and conspiracy is a 30-year-old woman.
She denied any involvement in the matter when asked about the offence.
The court heard that the accused contacted the complainant and told her about the footage and allegedly told her to pay $8,000 or else the content of the video would be released to the community and likewise to the Internet.
The accused reportedly got the data from a memory chip that was used to store the video.
The complainant reportedly had no idea she was being taped during the encounter which took place sometime ago.
The accused is to return to court on April 14 as the cybercrime report was outstanding.
A fingerprint order was also made.
