That day was hell. They handled me like a criminal just because I didn't properly put on the face mask. At first I didn't understand that all they were after was for me to bribe them. Because they immediately seized my phone. And I was put behind their canter. While begging them, explaining to them that I just received a call which made me shift down the face mask now. They didn't even give listening ear and were threatening that they will come and use black Maria to take me to panti now. On top face masks o!!! So later they gave me my phone to call who I can call to come and bail me. They didn't also want to accept transfer, I had to call my junior bro and gave him my ATM card to help me withdraw the money for them. Since then, I have developed full hate for the Nigerian Police. It happened like a week back.

Ikennamurphy:
I knew it will be somewhere in the south, such nonsense can't happen in the north.. In the north people don't wear facemasks and is not a big deal and you were even putting on one yourself

You cant use IMEI to track anybody

A phone must have a sim card before you can track, Once a sim card is inserted, it sends the IMEI number to the network.

IMEI is just used to identify mobile phones (like phone maker details), it not used in tracking.

Good day everyone who finds this and I wish to get help as soon as possible as I will be very brief.

On the 20th of July 2020 I got arrested by Asaba State CID from Enugu state and immediately thrown into prison.

On my arrest, I was arrested with an iPhone 7 Plus, the police officers dialed my phone number and it rang on my iPhone. Then I was asked where is the camon 15 I stole on the 7th of July in Asaba. I told them I didn’t visit Asaba on 7th I showed prove. Then the IPO told me the stolen phone was tracked and my phone number appeared to have been inserted into the stolen phone on the 9th of July.

This is ridiculous as I informed the police of my status in the society and that since April I have not removed my sim from my phone.

I had to pay N185,000 as amount of phone and cost of tracking to be freed after paying N50,000 for bail.

I am writing this because I need help, I need an independent tracker as agreed between me and the IPO to unravel the mystery of how my phone number got linked with the IMEI.

Please any recommendation will be appreciated

With my understanding of how BTS and gls work I'll say they did track you.
The tracking tool isn't something you just get access to anyhow except there's a case reported against the phone number or imei and it costs money to use it.
Maybe the police or whosoever reported the case didn't have enough money to pay for the whole thing and the police only did the tracking meanwhile in a case of such investigations the call log, user activity and free time is gotten from the service provider legally or illegally through Kingfishers. After cross referencing they should know who the real culprit is without making such mistakes. If they did they would know the difference between a tecno IMEI and iphone, the time the sim was used in the tecno phone if at all it was when compared with that of your iPhone would give results that don't tally.
Lets just say a real investigation wasn't carried out, they just got a complaint that phone was stolen etc and most times people who report don't give the actual or truthfull info.
A freind contacted me last month that her dads phone was stolen and after all my enquiries she finally said it was at home and they didn't see it which is totally different case cos she isn't sure it was stolen, anybody could've mistakenly picked it.

People tweak IMEI and it could be one reason but I've never seen an issue with iPhone IMEI only low quality Android phones like tecno, infinix, itel, maybe someone used your sim and put in another phone or you were a target but either ways I'll strongly advice you get a lawyer and request for call logs and user activities on both IMEI and phone number of that of the tecno and iPhone.
If they don't provide tangible evidence that you are related to the case as a conspirator or the thief you sue them for negligence, defamation of character and all you can think of cause having your location and IMEI doesn't prove anything only the Analysis of all the data gotten from call log, BTS and user activit
ies can prove anything.

Go to twitter and look for segalink.... Tell him ur case he will attend to OR hand u over the proper person's and make sure the top oga's are involved. This is a case of extortion.
You are entitled to get every dime u have spent and more as u can prove u have nothing to do with and at asaba on the 7th.
Don't fret or u will become their cash cow for a long time.

My brother... the same thing happened to me..

My friend was using my old sim in a phone that he picked on the road.... Samsung Galaxy S5 Gold...

The phone was tracked n my phone number appeared... I was in school then whn I heared that am wanted by the police... lucky for me they couldn't get me until I finished my exam then went to the station myself....


Getting to the station I was told that am a kidnapper... I kidnapped the owner of the phone, killed him n took his phone.... It was hell.. I wasn't beaten though but I was sent into their cell... It was whn I was in that I remembered how my friend told me about the phone He picked n the phone was exactly the same the police described to me....

I told police everything I know.. I took them to the guys house n luckily he was still with the phone..... I paid 100k for bailout after spending one week in police cell...


My brother just thank God u spent money n left there with ur life.... Forget about the incident n move on.... U might end up putting urself into trouble...

Lol.. I'm telling u the honest truth.. We don't wear mask here walai.. I'm in zaria, where are you yourself?

I understand they're police and state actors but generally people aren't wearing it

illitrate:
I guess u didnt read ops full post, his sim had been in his iphone for months without removing it, changing an iphone imei requires the baseband, eeprom, u2, avilma to be replaced and also requires special hardware skills because these chips are heavily glued on the pcb, not worth it thats why hardware icloud unclock on new apple devices is not possible as icloud id is tied to the imei.

The only chances here are:

Op didnt say all the truth

Police are lieing

Network operator provided wrong info in relation to sim imsi and phone imei hence cell tower also said asaba

Op had a twin sim and was not aware

Op: ask the police to give u the imei of the lost phone, i have access to the global TAC database lets see where the issue is.

sniperbubble:
here in kaduna if you don't wear it you'll be arrested and taken straight to a moblie court. it's not really like that in abuja

oga he can't sue the police, he'll just end up spending more money...
