The Nigeria Police Force, through the INTERPOL National Central Bureau (NCB), Abuja, has arraigned three suspects before the Federal High Court in Abuja over an alleged $100,000 fraud.
The Force Public Relations Officer, CSP Ani Iniedu, disclosed the development in a statement issued on behalf of the Nigeria Police Force Headquarters, Abuja.
The suspects — George Ali, Anthony Ali and Simon Ali — are facing allegations of criminal conspiracy, criminal breach of trust and obtaining money by false pretences.
According to the Police, preliminary investigations showed that the complainant allegedly transferred $100,000 to the suspects in 2009 for the purchase and shipment of auto spare parts from the United States.
The transaction was allegedly not executed as agreed, with the funds subsequently diverted, prompting an investigation by operatives of INTERPOL NCB, Abuja.
Following the investigation, the three suspects were arraigned before the Federal High Court, Court 6, Maitama, Abuja.
The case has been adjourned until December 3, 2026, for further hearing.
The Police said the prosecution forms part of its commitment to investigating financial crimes and other offences and ensuring that suspects are brought before the appropriate courts in accordance with the law.
