Melbourne Magistrates’ Court: TikTok creator Catherine Colivas, allegedly involved in Moorabbin kidnapping, fronts court with bail requests

A glamorous Melbourne TikTok creator who was allegedly involved in a bizarre Moorabbin kidnapping which featured a knife and demands for $100,000 has again faced court.

Catherine Colivas fronted Melbourne Magistrates’ Court on Wednesday to request a few variations to her bail ahead of her next appearance in December.

An aspiring Melbourne TikTok influencer who allegedly held a man at knifepoint with her friends before forcing him to cough up $40,000 in Bitcoin has fronted court with a few requests.

Highett’s Catherine Colivas appeared in Melbourne Magistrates’ Court on Wednesday morning requesting variations to her bail, which were unopposed.

Court documents previously obtained by the Herald Sun show police allege Colivas alongside her co-accused Angela Davis, 22, and Paris Kennedy, 21, kidnapped a man at Moorabbin on February 28 before assaulting him with a knife.

Police allege they forced him to surrender almost $40,000 in bitcoin.

They also allegedly demanded $100,000 ransom from his friend for his safe release.

The link between the trio and the man was not yet known but a court previously heard the kidnapping was connected to “dating apps”.

Ms Colivas’ lawyer told Magistrate Stephen Ballek the 22-year-old wanted her bail address changed to a different apartment within the same suburb of Highett.

They also sought an extension of her curfew to 11pm, which was granted.

The three women, who are all on bail, are expected to face court again in December.
