A British woman has been jailed in Hong Kong after being convicted of blackmail and perverting the course of justice. Isabel Rose was found guilty of attempting to extort £100,000 from a UK banker.
The charges stem from a false accusation, as Rose had accused the banker of rape before attempting to use the allegation to extract money from him. Legal proceedings resulted in her conviction for both the extortion attempt and the related offenses against the administration of justice.
