This is why you should never tell people your real name if you are a casino owner with a lot of Bitcoins.

Casino owners and their identities should be kept a secret from the public to prevent these crimes, but as

Others have suggested it could be that someone close to him did this to him just to get the Bitcoins.

I can't really say who that person might be but people would usually go for the spouse, in most of cases

It's usually the wife or husband, or maybe a girlfriend or something but you never know not until they

Catch whoever behind this crime. the question is why would they kill the man if they were paid the ransom

As they requested? one possible answer could be that whoever was behind the kidnapping knew the victim

And had no other option than killing the man because if they let him go, he could've gone to the police

And tell them who kidnapped him, in most cases of kidnapping and asking for a ransom, people end up dead

Even if you pay them what they have asked, they say that if you go to the police they would kill the

Person, now they killed him anyways.
