Men of Ogun State Police Command have arrested a self-acclaimed Police Community Relations Committee member, Musa AraokanmI, for allegedly defrauding the public.
The suspect was said to have collected the sum of N1.4m from one Halimot Olorunlomeru under the pretence that he would assist her to get a car and motorcycles from the police auction sales.
The Police Public Relations Officer in the state, SP, Abimbola Oyeyemi, disclosed this in a statement on Thursday.
Oyeyemi said the suspect was arrested following a complaint lodged at Ago-Iwoye divisional headquarters by the victim.
He said, “She stated further that the suspect advised her to deposit the sum of N1.4m with him to get a very good car and motorcycles from Police auction sales.
“Since he collected the said amount in June 2020, he has been on the run and efforts to locate him proved abortive until he was recently sighted in Ago-Iwoye.
