Featuring on a radio programme in Osogbo on Thursday, the Osun Police Commissioner said the command has in the past months tried to nip in the bud cases of crime, fraud, kidnapping among others.
On Internet Fraud, he said the police has deployed various mechanisms to checkmate the activities of Youths who are now into the business urging them to refrain from the act as those caught will face the music.
