The National Drug Law Enforcement Agency has warned travellers smuggling multiple Automated Teller Machine cards to desist from the act or face the law. In a statement on Saturday, the NDLEA described as money laundering, an arrangement of using multiple debit cards to withdraw money from multiple bank accounts to circumvent the minimum amount of daily withdrawal.
”That criminal plan will not work because we shall continue to seize such cards and arrest the perpetrators at all entry and exit points,” said Ahmadu Giade, NDLEA’s Chairman.
Mr. Giade spoke following the arrest of two travellers, at the weekend, with 89 debit cards at the Murtala Mohammed International Airport, Lagos.
