The operatives of the Nigeria Police Force National Cybercrime Centre (NPF-NCCC), in a well-coordinated effort, apprehended Bristol Isaac Tamunobiefiri, also known as PIDOM, on allegations of committing serious offenses that undermine the integrity of government operations.

The arrest, as confirmed by the Force spokesman, ACP Olumuyiwa Adejobi took place on August 5, 2024, in his hotel room in Rivers State.

According to Adejobi, there are several allegations levelled against the suspect, including unlawful possession, leakages of classified documents, cyber related offences, and others.

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

“The force will leave no stone unturned to continually enforce the law and bequeath to Nigerians a more secure nation”.

Meanwhile, Adejobi has confirmed the rescue of 20 medical students and others.

“We confirm the release of our brothers and sisters and some other Nigerians who have been in captivity on Friday 23rd August 2024 in Ntunkon forest, Benue State. Without any ransom paid.

“Contrary to some tweets and unconfirmed stories that some money was paid, no kobo was paid to release them. They were actually rescued tactically and professionally.

“We commend the security agencies, locals, and ONSA for their commitment and resilience. Thanks to you all. More details soon”, he said.
