Suspected underworld kingpin Nafiz Modack faces one less legal hurdle as an attempted extortion charge against him has been withdrawn. He still faces an extortion charge in a Cape Town case along with four co-accused. Modack, who is based in Cape Town, had initially faced an extortion charge in the Johannesburg matter along with veteran bouncer Jacques Cronje. The extortion charge was later changed to attempted extortion. Modack and Cronje were arrested for this Johannesburg case while in custody for the Cape Town extortion case.
