EFCC Chairman Bans Sting Operations At Night

The Chairman of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, Ola Olukoyede, has directed that sting operations at night time be stopped in all the Commands of the EFCC.

This is in line with the newly-reviewed procedures on arrest and bail of suspects, EFCC said in a statement on Wednesday night, November 1.

According to the statement, Olukoyede gave the directive in Abuia in reaction to the arrest of 69 suspected internet fraudsters by operatives of the Ibadan Zonal command of the Commission in lle-Ife,
Osun State.

“Already, many of the suspects duly profiled by the Command have been released, while profiling of suspects yet un-released will be completed, without further delay,” the statement reads.
