The Nigeria Police Force has announced the arrest of a politician, Ambassador Wilfred Bonse, in connection with the theft of over $246,153 from Patricia Technologies’ crypto wallet. Bonse is accused of assisting hackers in laundering $61,538 from the stolen funds. The police have made significant progress in investigating the financial fraud case, which involves criminal conspiracy, unauthorized alteration of computer systems, and the diversion of funds. The arrest of Bonse brings some relief to Patricia Technologies, which faced scrutiny after a hacking incident resulted in the loss of billions in customer funds. The company has introduced the Patricia Token as an internal customer holding to ensure asset recovery. Patricia Technologies had enlisted DLM Trust as an escrow agent for distributing customer repayments, but despite their withdrawal, the company intends to proceed with the repayment schedule. The investigation into the theft is ongoing, and the police assure that all individuals involved will be brought to justice.
