Delta Police Raid Cyber Fraud Den, Arrest 34 Suspects

Delta State Quick Response Squad operatives stormed a residential apartment in Opete and arrested 34 suspected internet fraudsters. The raid followed a distress call from a woman who said her younger brother was held hostage and forced to commit cybercrime. State police spokesperson SP Bright Edafe said officers uncovered a well-organised fraud network operating from the converted apartment. During the operation, they seized 37 laptops, an iPad, seven mobile phones and a calabash believed to contain charms used in the scheme. Investigations are ongoing to determine the full scale of the group’s activities and identify other accomplices.
