A second person suspected of being involved in a case of high -level cryptography removal in New York should turn into a police, according to several reports.
The second man is an investor of Swiss crypto who would have helped the trading partner Joel Woeltz, who is accused of having kidnapped Michael Valentino Teofrasto Carturan and torture him in an apartment in Soho in order to put him pressure to reveal his cryptographic portfolio sentence, ABC7 New York, reported on May 26.
A separate NBC report said that the Swiss merchant – who is not appointed – would turn to the police in a week. However, Fox5 New York reported that man was perhaps already in detention, citing contradictory sources.
The New York Post reported that man is the co-founder of a Swiss commercial company.
Woeltz, known as “Crypto King of Kentucky”, faces several accusations, notably kidnapping, an illegal imprisonment and assault. He would have held the victim in his apartment for 17 days.
Woeltz assistant, Béatrice Folchi, of Italian origin, was also arrested, however, she was released and no accusation was brought against her.
The arrests occurred after Teofrasto Carturan, 28 years old in Italy, managed to escape the apartment on May 23 – the day he would have been informed that it would be his “day of death”.
CNN reported that Teofrasto Carturan had agreed to give up his crypto seed sentence, which was stored on his laptop in another room, and while he was looking for his laptop, Woeltz turned his back, allowing him to bolt at the exit.
Several New York media have shared videos of the victim running outside, barefoot, to a traffic agent.

Some time later, the police arrested Woeltz in his apartment in Soho and placed him in police custody.
He remains detained and his next audience date is set for May 28.
The alleged victim shares test
Teofrasto Carturan told the police that he had arrived from Italy on May 6 and went to Soho apartment to meet his “business partners”.
Some time later, he said that his passport was symbolic that he had been tortured to reveal his sentence of crypto seeds. NBC New York said Teofrasto Carturan had an estimated net value at around $ 30 million.

Police said Teofrasto Carturan was linked to electrical and electrocuted cords. His feet were also tested while they were immersed in the water and the alleged perpetrators held an electric chainsaw on his leg, threatening to cut the members.
Police said they had found a polaroid from the alleged perpetrators torturing Teofrasto Carturan, the one who showing him linked to a chair with a weapon to the head.
Teofrasto Carturan would also have been forced to smoke crack and was urinated in Soho apartment, described by NBC New York journalists as a “high-end frame house” with strip-teasist posts and expensive alcohols dispersed throughout the five-story building.
Carturan spent some time being treated in a hospital after escaping, said the New York Post.
