In a daring sting operation, the Enugu Zonal Directorate of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has apprehended 37 suspected internet fraudsters in Awka, Anambra State.
The raid, carried out at the upscale Commissioners’ Quarters on Dr. J. O. Ukwutinife Close, Ifite, was based on credible intelligence linking the suspects to widespread cybercrime activities.
The suspects, all male, were caught with a haul of luxury items, including six high-end cars, sophisticated laptops, and mobile phones allegedly used in their illicit operations.
The EFCC has vowed to expedite its investigation and bring the accused to justice, promising court arraignment upon conclusion of its findings.
