JORAN ADMITS NATALEE EXTORT

Dutch thug JORAN van der SLOOT reportedly confessed to attempting to extorting money from the NATALEE HOLLOWAY family in exchange for information.

As The ENQUIRER reportedly previously the hulking van der Sloot currently incarcerated in Peru's Castro Castro for the brutal murder of Stephany Flores, 21.  He has long been a suspect in the disappearance of American teen beauty NATALIE HOLLOWAY five years ago in Aruba.

Now, der Sloot has told the Dutch newswer De Telegraaf that he "wanted to get back at Natalee's family -- her parents have been making my life tough for five years."

Van der Sloot did not admit to killing Natalee who disappeared while on vacation on the island of Aruba five years ago.

But he confirmed The ENQUIRER's exclusive report that he had been extorting money from Holloway's grieving family in exchange for giving her family "her location."

Holloway's family cooperated with van der Sloot as it was a FBI sting op.  The U.S. Attorney's office has  indicted him for extortion.

Joran admitted to the murder of Flores earlier this year and then recanted his confession but La Policia Nacional has refused to strike it from the official court case.  The President of Peru has called for the death penalty for Joran.

As The ENQUIRER reported exclusively Sloot is hoping that extradition to the US for the Holloway extortion will secure him an exit from the Peruvian prison hellhole known as Castro Castro.
