He was told 'You have f***ed with the wrong people'

The men banged on his door at 10.30pm demanding that he come out and face them.

The incidents arose after the end of a"hostile" business relationship between Mr Smith's company and a subcontractor. There was a further payment in June 2020 which Mr Smith believed would bring an end to the business relationship. Mr Shaw initially received a call at his workplace from a number and voice he did not recognise - which the Crown identified as being Shaw.

A follow up call from Shaw said:"I told you not to speak to anyone, it's went from 15 grand to 25 grand, you have got until Monday. "He looked through the door pane and found there were two people wearing hi-vis vests and face masks.Mr Smith recognised one of the voices to be Shaw and his wife phoned the police.Police later used CCTV which showed Shaw buying mobile top-ups and a service provider check proved that he was the owner of the phone making the contact.Mr Smith has since reported to the Crown that there have been no further incidents but requested a non-harassment order for him and his wife.
