A 29-year-old Arou­ca man will ap­pear be­fore an Ari­ma mag­is­trate to­day charged with at­tempt­ing to ex­tort $80,000 and ha­rass­ment of Unit­ed Na­tion­al Con­gress To­co/San­gre Grande can­di­date Nabi­la Greene.

The charge was laid yes­ter­day against Isa Hinds by PC David Hall of the La Hor­quet­ta Po­lice Sta­tion.

Hinds was ar­rest­ed by po­lice on Fri­day at his home.

Last week, a video sur­faced on so­cial me­dia in which a woman was seen ly­ing on a bed and be­ing show­ered with mon­ey by an un­known male.

Last Tues­day, a video sur­faced on so­cial me­dia pur­port­ing to be Greene ly­ing on a bed be­ing show­ered with mon­ey. The video showed a woman, clad in a bra and ly­ing on her back on a bed be­ing show­ered with $100 and $50 bills by a male, whose face was not seen.

As the mon­ey land­ed on her chest, face and bed, the woman, who was gig­gling and smil­ing, was heard ask­ing for “a lit­tle bit more” of the cash. The man com­plied by throw­ing more mon­ey at her.

But ini­tial­ly, Greene, in an in­ter­view with Guardian Me­dia dur­ing a walk­a­bout in San­gre Grande, said if the per­son in the video turned out to be her, she saw noth­ing wrong with the clip.

“If it is me. I don’t see the per­son do­ing any­thing il­le­gal there. That per­son looks like they are in the com­fort of their home with mon­ey,” Greene said.

The fol­low­ing day, Greene took to so­cial me­dia deny­ing she was the per­son in the video. She blamed the Peo­ple’s Na­tion­al Move­ment for the fake video, stat­ing it was “a dis­gust­ing dis­play of gut­ter pol­i­tics at its worst us­ing lies, de­ceit, de­cep­tion and slan­der against a young fe­male can­di­date.”
