The Delta State Police Command has arrested some suspected fraudsters with fake $1,600 bills in a Delta community.
The state Police Public Relations Officer, Bright Edafe, disclosed this in a signed statement, copies of which were made available to journalists in Warri on Thursday.
Edafe stated, “On June 9, 2026, operatives of the Special Anti-Kidnapping Unit, acting on credible intelligence, commenced surveillance on a five-man syndicate reportedly involved in defrauding unsuspecting members of the public using counterfeit United States dollar bills while operating in a red, unregistered Mercedes-Benz GLK SUV.
“The intelligence-driven operation led to the arrest of four suspects identified as Joshua Nwaosa, Daniel Arhewe, Prince Chukwuma, and John Egwuba along Nnebisi Road, Asaba.
