The National Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA), on Saturday, October 23, 2021, arrested and handed over two suspected internet fraudsters to the Enugu Zonal Command of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC).
The suspects are Eze David and Onyia Chika Steven. At the time of their arrest, Steven had in his possession 68 (sixty-eight) blank GTB ATM Cards. Other items recovered from him include mobile phones, a Lexus IS350 Salon car with registration number, BWR 977 BR
The suspects were handed over along with the recovered items including written statements recorded at the office of the NDLEA.

Also, a staff of a new generation bank at Rangers Avenue Enugu whose conversation with the suspect was intercepted by the Commission has been arrested and is currently helping the investigation.
In a similar development, the Department of State Services (DSS) also handed over eight suspected internet fraudsters to the Enugu Command of the EFCC on October 20, 2021.
