Cyber police arrest suspect involved in alleged document leak

In a well-coordinated effort, operatives from the Nigeria Police Force National Cybercrime Centre (NPF-NCCC), popularly called “cyber hawks,” have apprehended Bristol Isaac Tamunobiefiri, also known as ‘PIDOM,’ over alleged document leaks.

The spokesman for the police, ACP Muyiwa Adejobi, who made the disclosure, noted that the suspect was arrested by cyber hawks, headed by Uche Ifeanyi, a Commissioner of Police, on allegations of committing serious offenses that undermine the integrity of government operations.

“The arrest took place on August 5, 2024, in his hotel room in Rivers State.

“There are several allegations levelled against the suspect, including unlawful possession, leakages of classified documents, cyber-related offenses, and others.

“We will ensure due diligence in carrying out a thorough investigation into the cases.

“The force will leave no stone unturned to continually enforce the law and provide Nigerians with a more secure nation,” he said.
