The Police Command in Gombe State, has arrested six suspects in an attempt to defraud residents of the state.

According to him, the six suspects comprise two indigenes of Gombe state and four Republic of Benin nationals, who entered into the country illegally and were arrested in Gombe on Jan 18. “The two Nigerians were transferred to the police for discrete investigations and possible prosecution while the four Beninese were handed over to the Nigerian Immigration Service which later returned them back to the police,” the commissioner said.

“This means that as IR, they are to be solely responsible for complying with applicable local laws, ethical practices and paying taxes on commissions and assumes all risks related to their IR entrepreneurial activities,” he said. However, one of the suspects, 26-year-old Abdullahi Yusuf from Gombe while speaking with newsmen, denied that the business was fraudulent, saying that it was an online networking.
