Inspector of Police arrested for defrauding US-based Medical director

An Inspector of the Nigeria Police Force attached to X Squad Section Force, Criminal Investigation Department Annex, Lagos, Anthony Chukwu, has been arrested for defrauding a female Nigerian Medical Director in the United States of America, Miss Veronica Okwara.

The Officer defrauded Miss Veronica of N9 million after he had a fake wedding with her.



Veronica claimed that Chukwu converted the proceeds from the sale of vehicles and other imported items she asked him to sell on her behalf to his personal use.

In her petition, Veronica narrated thus:

“When I returned to Nigeria on vacation sometime in 2010, a member of my staff stole one of my trucks worth N3.8 million. I was introduced to Chukwu who was then attached to the Special Fraud Unit, SFU of the Nigeria Police in Ikoyi, Lagos to handle the case.

After the case, we became friends and Chukwu later proposed to me.

Chukwu asked me if I was married and I said no. He told me he had divorced his wife and proposed to me. Because he sounded good, I discussed with my family and accepted his marriage proposal.

I fell into his trap and took him to USA where we wedded at North Carolina County Court Marriage Registry.

After the wedding, I informed Chukwu about my plans to import cars and other goods to Nigeria for sale.

The items include: Toyota Sienna, Toyota 4 Runner, Nissan Path finder, Toyota Sequoia, Honda CRV and 25 pieces of laptops. Chukwu sold the items including 14 vehicles and converted the money from the sale proceeds to his personal use.

When I asked for her money, he started threatening to arrest me.

I later discovered that Chukwu was still married but planned with his wife to hide her and their three children at Oworonsoki area of Lagos in order to marry me.”

The Inspector General of Police, Mohammed Abubakar, has since ordered the Interpol at the Police Headquarters in Abuja to investigate the matter.
