The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission says its Lagos zonal office has arrested an ex-convict, Mark Obisesan, for possession of suspected fake traveller’s cheque worth 10,000 US Dollars.
The anti-graft commission disclosed this in a statement issued by its spokesperson, Mr Wilson Uwujaren, in Abuja on Tuesday.
Uwujaren said the suspect, who had served a 12-month jail term for Internet fraud in the UK, was arrested recently at his residence in Banana Island, Lagos.
He said that Obisesan was arrested following intelligence from concerned members of the public about his alleged criminal activities.
“At the point of arrest, a Ferrari 488 car, two i-phones, one Samsung phone, a laptop, and Automated Teller Machine cards were recovered from the suspect, whom investigation revealed does not have any known source of livelihood,” the statement added.
Uwujaren said the suspect would soon be charged to court.
