Gangland widow Roberta Williams 'trashes' police interview room

Photos have emerged of gangland widow Roberta Williams trashing a police interview room on the day she was charged over the alleged extortion of a TV producer.

Williams, the former wife of convicted killer Carl Williams, can be seen tipping over the desk after picking up a chair and slamming it against the floor inside the Melbourne police station.

She is facing charges over destroying police property.

Willliams was yesterday committed to stand trial in the County Court on charges of extortion, making threats to kill and unlawfully imprisoning Ryan Naumenko, a man involved in the production of a reality series on her life.

She pleaded not guilty to accusations she imprisoned, threatened and choked the video producer with an electrical cord.

Magistrate Andrew McKenna yesterday said there was sufficient evidence to support a conviction.

The trial is expected to go for a month.
