Michael Schumacher Targeted in £12m Blackmail Plot by Angry, Arrested Ex-Bodyguard
Dec 1, 2024, 01:02 PM
Michael Schumacher, the former Formula 1 champion, has been at the center of a blackmail plot allegedly orchestrated by his former bodyguard and accomplices. Reports indicate that the bodyguard, who was reportedly angry over being sacked by Schumacher's family, attempted to extort £12 million by threatening to release sensitive medical photos of the racing legend. Additionally, hundreds of stolen documents were reportedly involved in the scheme. German authorities have stated that three individuals, including the arrested ex-bodyguard, will soon face charges in connection with this attempted extortion, which allegedly sought €15 million in total from Schumacher's family.
