The Federal Capital Territory, FCT Police Command has arrested members of a notorious fraud syndicate allegedly involved in forgery, impersonation, and obtaining money by false pretence.

SP Josephine Adeh, the Police Public Relations Officer of the command disclosed this in a statement she issued and made available to DAILY POST on Wednesday.

She explained that the arrests followed a complaint received by the Command regarding the fraudulent activities of suspects, who falsely presented themselves as legitimate business operators under the name and style of AM-PM Global Network LTD.

She said the suspects were using the guise of business owners to deceive and defraud unsuspecting members of the public.

The PPRO identified the suspects as one Yahaya Abdul an indigene of Kogi State and Christopher Erin from Akwa Ibom State.

“Further investigations are ongoing to dismantle the entire syndicate. One additional suspect, identified only as Richard, is currently at large, and efforts are being intensified to ensure his immediate arrest and prosecution.
