Some 10 Nigerians have been arrested by the Madina Divisional Police Command for suspected cyber fraud.
The Madina Divisional Police Commander, ACP Charles Domanban, said the suspects were arrested at Ashongman.
They are Diamond Andy 22, Benson Romeo 20, Randy Samuel 25, Kelvin Agho 23, Osas Igbo 21, David Okondu 23, Praise Onyekwena, Ohis David 25, Duru Wisdom 22, and Uyi Ighodaro.
ACP Domanban said on March 21 at around 2pm, the Kwabenya Police Patrol team trailed a taxicab whose occupants appeared suspicious to them to Oforikrom, a suburb of Ashongman Estates.
He said the team followed the taxi to a-four-bedroom house and on their arrival, other tenants attempted to escape.
The team, therefore, requested for reinforcement and the Kwabenya District Commander led "Combat 9" to the scene.
The patrol team intercepted nine laptops, six modems, five mobile phones and fifty-four SIM cards which they use for their activities.
ACP Domanban said the case has been referred to the Cyber Crime Unit at the Police Headquarters for further investigations.
