The cyber police team in Delhi have arrested a Nigerian national, who was absconding from Mumbai, for being involved in drug peddling, cyber crime and other heinous offenses today. The accused has been identified as Donatus Odipko Okoye (36), a resident of the Republic of Nigeria, who was overstaying in India with a fake passport and without any valid visa.

Continuing its crackdown on illegal foreign nationals staying in the country, a team of cyber police station was patrolling in Govindpuri. The team noticed a foreign national who started walking suspiciously after seeing the police party which then followed and overpowered him.

When the foreign national was asked to produce his documents for staying in India, he was unable to show them and tried to run away from the spot, police said. The accused was taken into police custody and accordingly, an FIR under relevant sections of the Foreigner Act was registered and an investigation was launched.
Accused came to India in 2016

Upon further interrogation, it was revealed that the Nigerian national came to India in 2016 as Kone Adama on the passport of Ivory Coast that he managed through an agent in Ivory Coast. Two years later, he met his Nigerian Boss who used to hire drug peddlers and started working for him.

However, when he was arrested by the police while he was supplying drugs to a client in Mumbai and a case was registered against him under the NDPS Act at PS Dongri in the city.

After getting bail from Arthur Road jail, he returned to Delhi and started living in Uttam Nagar. He again met his Nigerian boss who told him about his online work, in which he used to dupe people on the pretext of custom clearance. The accused was allegedly told to withdraw money from ATMs and he would be given 15 to 20 per cent of the cheated amount.

Debit cards, phones recovered

Police recovered eight debit cards, one forged passport and four mobile phones from his house. Further probe revealed that the fake passport recovered from his possession was originally issued to one of his associates, who was in a jail of Bengaluru in a Cyber fraud case.

During the course of investigation, account statements of recovered debit cards were obtained and after analyzing the statements, a transaction of cheated money of more than Rs one crore was found in these bank accounts. The accused duped various people worth Rs 8 to 10 lakhs each on the pretext of custom clearance.

Further investigation of the case is under progress to nab his associates, police said.
