The Zone 2 Command of the Nigeria Police has arrested two men, who allegedly specialise in hacking into bank customers’ accounts.
The Zonal Public Relations Officer, Hauwa Idris-Adamu, confirmed the arrest in a statement on Tuesday in Lagos.
Idris-Adamu said that the arrest followed a petition received from a bank by the Assistant Inspector-General of Police (AIG) in charge of the Zone comprising Lagos and Ogun, Mohammed Ali.
Based on the petition, the AIG raised a team of detectives from the Zonal Monitoring Unit, which swung into action with the aid of modern technology.
According to the official, the two suspects were tracked down at their hideout at Ijebu Ode, Ogun State and they confessed to the crime.
