Man - referred to as MM by court - will keep his identity hidden after legal challenge against suppression dismissed

The identity of a high-profile Queensland man drawn into a Cairns extortion case will remain secret, after the state's supreme court threw out a legal challenge against a suppression order.

The man - referred to as MM by the court - was drawn into an extortion case earlier this year. He is not a party to the case and is not accused of any offence.
