The Federal Capital Territory (FCT) Police Command has arrested two suspected members of a criminal syndicate allegedly involved in document forgery, impersonation, and obtaining money by false pretence.
The Command’s spokesperson, SP Josephine Adeh, disclosed the development in a statement issued on Wednesday, saying the arrests followed a complaint about individuals operating under the name AM-PM Global Network LTD to deceive unsuspecting members of the public.
According to the police, the suspects allegedly posed as legitimate business operators and used the company name to carry out fraudulent activities, convincing victims to part with money under false claims.

The arrested suspects were identified as Yahaya Abdul, a native of Kogi State, and Christopher Erin from Akwa Ibom State.
Preliminary investigations revealed that the duo are believed to be part of an organized criminal network specializing in the forgery of official documents, impersonation, and other sophisticated fraud schemes designed to unlawfully obtain financial benefits from victims.
The police said investigations are ongoing to identify and dismantle the entire syndicate.
Authorities also disclosed that another suspected member of the group, identified simply as Richard, is currently on the run. Efforts have been intensified to track him down and bring him to justice.
The two arrested suspects remain in police custody and will be charged to court after investigations are concluded, while the FCT Police Command urged residents to remain vigilant and report suspicious activities to security agencies.
