SFU drags 3 suspected fraudsters to court over N400m

Barring any odd, the Police Special Fraud Unit (SFU)
Ikoyi Lagos, will tomorrow arraign three suspected
fraudsters, among whom is one Oyeyoke Hanson
Toba and two others for trials before the Lagos
Magistrate Court 2, Igbosere, for attempting to
defraud the government of Anambra State the sum
of N400 million.
A press statement signed by the image maker of the
police anti-fraud unit, Ngozi Isintume, and made
available to Sunday Tribune yesterday stated that
the suspected fraudsters had allegedly hacked into
the account of a bank in Ago Iwoye, Ogun State, and
fraudulently transferred the money from the account
of the Anambra State Government to their accounts
in Enugu, Onitsha and Aba branches of the bank.
However, Isintume, an Assistant Superintendent of
Police (ASP), noted that before the accused persons
could withdraw the money, the fraud was detected
and nipped in the bud by the bank.
According to her, "the case is slated for trial on
Monday, 30th July, 2012."
