Dubai police extradite Hushpuppi to U.S. - The Nation Nigeria

In a statement, the Dubai police said the US Federal Bureau of Investigations extended its gratitude to the UAE crime unit for its role in apprehending and extraditing the suspect.

“The Director of the Federal Bureau of Investigation , Christopher Wray has praised the exceptional efforts exerted by the United Arab Emirates, represented by the Dubai Police General HQ, in combating transnational organised cybercrime including the recent arrest of Raymond Igbalode Abbas, known as “Hushpuppi” and Olalekan Jacob Ponle aka “Woodberry” who were taken down in operation Fox Hunt 2,” the statement read.

“Mr Wray also extended his appreciations to Dubai Police for their cooperation in extraditing the wanted criminals, who committed money-laundering and multiple cybercrimes, to the United States.” The Cable Lifestyle had last month reported how Hushpuppi was arrested alongside his associates of 11 other Nigerians, including Olalekan Ponle, better known as Woodbery.The suspects were apprehended on June 10, for alleged crimes committed outside the UAE, including money laundering, cyber fraud, hacking, impersonation, scamming individuals, banking fraud and identity theft worth Dh1.6 billion .

Hushpuppi’s extradition also comes at about the same time when the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission described him as “Nigeria’s most-wanted hacker,” adding that “he has a case to answer”.
