LOS ANGELES (TIP): Indian American actor Vivek Shah, who sent extortion threats to several high-profile people including Hollywood producer Harvey Weinstein, has been sentenced to seven years and three months in prison. The 26-year-old actor, who did small roles in television series “Outsourced” and “Bones,” as well as romantic comedy “Our Family Weddings,” was arrested in August 2012 for threatening to kill relatives of several prominent businessmen unless they wired money to an offshore account. The West Hollywood-based Shah had hoped to raise $120 million through his elaborate extortion bid. Besides Weinstein, he targeted Relativity’s Ryan Kavanaugh, Groupon co-founder Eric Lefkofsky, Playtone owner Gary Goetzman, oil heiress Dannine Avara and Buffalo Sabres owner Terry Pegula. Shah pleaded guilty in May to one count of transferring threatening communications in interstate commerce and seven counts of mailing or sending threatening communications through the mail, said the Hollywood Reporter. “Imagine how terrifying it would be to open the mail and find a threat to kill your spouse or your children,” Attorney Booth Goodwin said in a release. “This defendant carried out a carefully-planned scheme designed to frighten his victims out of more than $120 million. It was an extraordinarily brazen crime and I’m pleased, for the victims’ sake, that we were able to put a stop to it so quickly,” Goodwin added.Shah’s Facebook page showed photos of him posing with Angelina Jolie, Tom Cruise and Sofia Vergara.

  1. I think that everything said was very logical. However, what about this?
    what if you were to create a awesome title?
    I mean, I don’t want to tell you how to run your website,
    but suppose you added a headline that makes people desire more?

    I mean Indian American Actor Vivek Shah jailed for 7 Years for Extorting Hollywood Movie magnate Harvey Weinstein —
    The Indian Panorama is kinda vanilla. You might peek at Yahoo’s front page and watch how they create news headlines to grab viewers to open the links.
    You might add a related video or a picture or two to grab people interested about what you’ve written. Just my opinion, it might make your
    website a little bit more interesting.

  2. Hi there! I know this is sort of off-topic but I
    needed to ask. Does building a well-established blog like yours require a lot of

  4. After the closure of Rainbow Fentanyl Vendor (Rainbowfentanylvendor.com), the market felt empty. I am incredibly happy to report that they are back in business at Rainbowfentanylvendor.com. I just placed an order for fentanyl, and the service was just as professional as it was before the hiatus. It is clear that many users missed Rainbow Fentanyl Vendor (Rainbowfentanylvendor.com) for their ability to provide a stable product in an otherwise chaotic environment. I hope they stay active for a long time to come.
