The Federal Capital Territory (FCT) Police Command has confirmed that an alleged internet fraudster, who confined a young lady for money rituals in Abuja, has been arrested by operatives of the Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps (NSCDC).
The FCT Police Public Relations Officer, SP Josephine Adeh, said in a statement on Thursday night that the police are currently awaiting the NSCDC to hand over the suspect to the command.
A video clip capturing a young lady confined in a room with her legs tied emerged on social media on Thursday.
She was allegedly confined by her boyfriend at the Top View Hotel, Wuse, Abuja, for a money ritual.
According to the PPRO, “Findings revealed that the Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps (NSCDC) has taken the suspect into custody and are yet to hand over to the police for diligent investigation.
“The FCT Police Command, for all intents and purposes, awaits the NSCDC to hand over all parties for the commencement of diligent and discreet investigation.
“Further developments will be communicated in due course.”
