Hackers publish private photos from cosmetic surgery clinic

Criminal group that broke into servers of Lithuanian clinic demands bitcoin ransom payments from clients after releasing 25,000 pictures

Hackers have published more than 25,000 private photos, including nude pictures, and other personal data from patients of a Lithuanian cosmetic surgery clinic, police say.

The images were made public on Tuesday by a hacking group calling themselves "Tsar Team", which broke into the servers of the Grozio Chirurgija clinic earlier this year and demanded ransoms from the clinic's clients in more than 60 countries around the world, including the UK.
