There are new reports that the so-called Crypto King of Canada was kidnapped and tortured at specific points.
This might have led to some severe consequences for him. Fox News reports that media accounts are circulating that the so-called Crypto King was kidnaped and driven around for three days while being tortured. He was begging his landlord to pay the $3 million in ransom that his kidnappers demanded.
Aiden Pleterski is the so-called Crypto King of Canada, and he claims that he was kidnaped from downtown Toronto in December 2022. Rob Stelzer is the appointed bankruptcy trustee, and he spoke with CTV News Toronto to say that he was informed that Pleterski had allegedly been kidnapped.
CTV News Toronto says that transcripts from court examinations with Pleterski, his father, and his landlord go deeper into the kidnapping allegation.
His father spoke to a courtroom about the situation and said: He was taken. They 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.
And he also said:
I was not one of those people that he was allowed to contact.
The landlord said that Pleterski said there was no one else to call, so he was asked for the $3 million payment in ransom.
I received multiple calls from Aiden, but it was late at night and then at around 1:30 AM, I finally had enough, and I picked up the call, said the landlord to the court on February 9. He continued by saying: I said, Theres absolutely nothing that I can do.
Canadian Broadcasting Corporation also reports that Pleterski was allegedly released three days later but was still ordered to come up with the money to pay the ransom.
We cannot confirm any information that would identify a victim or witness, said the local police in a statement about the situation. Toronto Police would not give more information about potential suspects related to the alleged kidnappings in this situation.
Some doubt the story entirely and believe that Pleterski might be making it all up to put himself in a better position regarding public opinion.
Fox News Digital reached out to Ontario Provincial Police, but they have yet to hear back in time for the publication of this story.
