The Anambra State Police Command has launched an investigation into a viral video showing a lady in an ATM at a commercial bank in Nnewi. This suspect is believed to have swapped the ATM card of a handicapped woman and subsequently withdrew a total of Two Million Naira.
According to a statement from the police issued on December 19, spokesperson SP Tockukwu Ikenga urged anyone with relevant information, particularly local residents, to assist in identifying the suspect to facilitate her arrest and prosecution.
Initial reports indicate that the suspect disguised herself to appear helpful, enabling her to switch the victim’s ATM card. Shortly after her departure from the ATM, the victim began receiving several debit notifications totalling Two Million Naira.
The Commissioner of Police, CP Nnaghe Obono Itam, has expressed his concern over the matter. He has instructed the Public Relations Officer to reach out to the victim for further details that could aid in the investigation. Additionally, all intelligence-gathering resources of the Command have been mobilized to help identify the suspect and her accomplices.
