it had arrested 40 Nigerians who allegedly attempted to secure Italian
visa using fake documents.
The documents ranged from forged statement of accounts, fake
travelling documents and many others.
The Commissioner of Police, Special Fraud Unit, Mr. Tunde Ogunsakin,
said the arrest of the suspects was made possible by a written request
received from the Consulate General of Italy in Lagos to carry out
investigations on the 40 suspects who submitted fake and forged
documents to Italian Embassy in a bid to travel out of the country.
According to him, "it has now become rampant for unscrupulous
Nigerians to desire travelling out of the country through dubious
means.
"In the course of their attempt to manipulate records and information,
many reputable organisations, financial institutions and government
parastatals' records are falsified and tampered with."
Ogunsakin also said the network of crooks that specialised in travel
document racketeering had been shattered and will soon face the
courts.
