The Lagos State Police Command says its operatives have arrested and detained a 25-year-old woman for allegedly diverting N3 million belonging to a company into her personal account.
The Public Relations Officer of the Command, SP Benjamin Hundeyin, confirmed the arrest on Tuesday in Lagos.
Hundeyin alleged that the suspect, whose name was not mentioned, and her other co-workers in a catering company, conspired and diverted money realized from the sale of the company’s products into their personal accounts.
He said that the suspects only remitted a fraction of the money to the company’s account.
“Over N3 million has so far been traced to the detained suspect’s account.
“She is in detention under a remand warrant. Investigation is ongoing,” Hundeyin said.
