Dutch Court Reduces Sentence of Man Convicted in Amanda Todd Cyberbullying Case

Aydin Coban, currently serving an 11-year sentence for similar charges, will serve the reduced sentence after completing his current prison time.

Aydin Coban, the Dutch man convicted of cyberbullying and sexually extorting Canadian teen Amanda Todd, has had his sentence reduced from 13 years to six by an Amsterdam court.
Coban was extradited from the Netherlands to Canada in 2020 to stand trial on charges linked to Amanda Todd, who took her own life in 2012 at the age of 15.
Coban is currently serving an 11-year sentence in the Netherlands after being convicted on similar charges involving the online extortion of 33 young girls and gay men.
The sentence imposed by the Amsterdam court will be served after he completes his current prison time next year.
Coban's lawyer, Robert Malewicz, has stated that they will appeal the decision to the Dutch Supreme Court.
