\n\nEFCC storms \u2018Yahoo-Boys den\u2019, arrests kingpin, 26 others
The Operatives of EFCC, on Wednesday, busted a Lagos hotel believed to be a hideout for internet fraudsters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The target was one Rasaq Balogun, a suspected internet fraud kingpin, whose illicit activities dominated intelligence gathered from the recently arrested \u2018police spies\u2019 during a raid on their Abeokuta base.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
According to findings, Balogun harbours an army of young men recruited to carry out financial frauds through the use of the internet. Some others were also arrested at his Beckley Estate residence, also in Lagos State.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The raid on his hotel, Modzak Hotel, at Abule-Egba, Lagos State, sufficiently gave credence to the suspicion as a retinue of young men were caught harboured in his hotel with no specific mission.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The suspected kingpin and 26 other young men ranging between the ages of 18 and 35 years were arrested at the scene.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Other suspects were also arrested at his Beckley Estate residence, Lagos, from where they were all moved to the Commission\u2019s Ibadan zonal office for further interrogation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Officer of the anti-graft agency also recovered three vehicles, fetish item, laptops, mobile phones and documents suspected to contain fraudulent data from the suspect.\n\n<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
