The Nigeria Police Force has arrested 130 suspects comprising 113 foreign nationals – 87 males and 26 females – primarily of Chinese and Malaysian origins, and 17 Nigerian collaborators made up of four males and 13 females for cybercrimes.
The foreigners and Nigerians were arrested for their alleged involvement in high-level cybercrimes, hacking, and activities that threaten national security.
The Force Public Relations Officer, Olumuyiwa Adejobi, made this known in a statement on Sunday.
Adejobi, an Assistant Commissioner of Police, said the strategic operation was conducted through a coordinated raid on a building at the Next Cash and Carry area of Jahi, Abuja, where the suspects were reportedly using computers and other sophisticated devices to facilitate criminal activities.
According to him, the operation, which was led by the Assistant Inspector-General of Police in charge of Zone 7 Headquarters, Abuja, AIG Benneth Igweh, on Saturday, comprised officers of the Nigeria Police Force Zone 7 Command, Abuja and National Cyber Crime Centre (NPF-NCCC).
He added: “We are investigating the matter and scientifically analysing the exhibits recovered from them.
“The suspects will be charged to court upon conclusion of our investigations.”
