The Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps (NSCDC) agents have detained a suspected internet scammer who confined a young woman in Abuja for money rituals, according to the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) Police Command.
SP Josephine Adeh, the FCT Police Public Relations Officer, said in a statement on Thursday night that the police are still waiting for the NSCDC to hand over the suspect to the command.
