Over 100 men and women\u00a0who turned up at various Police training institutions on Saturday for recruitment later found out they had been duped by fraudsters.<\/p>\n

[contextly_sidebar id=”wpfQWb91KuucZoT3YZjIdqUvtyHW7aUq”]”Any such information of reporting for training today is definitely the work of fraudsters,” a statement from Superintendent Cephas Arthur, Police Public Relations Officer said.<\/p>\n

The statement advised the victims to return to their various homes and also encouraged them to “report the matter at\u00a0the nearest Police station or the Criminal Investigations Department (CID) headquarters.”<\/p>\n

The Police said it is not currently embarking on any recruitment exercise and that when the appropriate time is due, there will communication in the media.<\/p>\n

The last time the Police service did any of such recruitment was in 2012 and that process was halted and completed in 2014.<\/p>\n

Scores of people have fallen prey to fraudsters who claimed they were recruiting for various security agencies including the military, the navy and the Police service.<\/p>\n

Superintendent Cephas Arthur said they have begun investigations to smoke out the fraudsters who duped the hundreds who turned up at the various training stations for recruitment on Saturday.<\/p>\n

Some of these fraudsters in the past have been arrested and prosecuted.<\/p>\n
