The Katsina Command of the Nigeria Customs Service (NCS) says it has intercepted a vehicle loaded with more than N71,350,000 suspected to be for laundering.<\/div>\n
\n
\n
\n
\nActing Controller at the command, Dalhat Wada-Chedi, made the disclosure on Monday, November 29, while briefing newsmen on the achievements of the command for the month of November 2021.
\n\ufffc
\nHe said three suspects were arrested at Dan Isa community, located at the bank of Niger Republic with the said amount in the middle of the night.<\/div>\n
\n“While intensifying our search on anti-smuggling activities on Katsina-Jibia border axis, we arrested three suspects with N71.350 million Naira cash inside the booth of an ash coloured Toyota Corolla along Katsina Jibia axis exit. The said amount was stashed inside a ghana must go bag.\u201d<\/div>\n
\nAccording to Wada-Chedi, what warranted the arrest is that the suspects were \u201cin possession of over $10,000 undeclared money, dead of the night, at the border exit route as well as in the place where the border is officially closed.<\/div>\n
\n“What are they doing with N71,350,000 cash at that hour! We brought the money, the suspects and the vehicle to the command. We counted the money, informed the customs headquarters and then took the money to Central Bank Katsina for safekeeping.<\/div>\n
\n“However, we granted the suspects an administrative bail as the case has been transferred to the headquarters as investigations are ongoing.\u201d Wada-Chedi said.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Wada-Chedi attributed the successes to the tireless efforts of the command and its operatives and called on members of the public to continue to give them the necessary support.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
